Malick Kordel, a 7'2” center from Germany, has announced his transfer from the Michigan Wolverines to the Minnesota Gophers basketball team. Kordel, who has only been playing organized basketball for four years, brings impressive size and athleticism to the Gophers. He is expected to fill a crucial role as a rotational big man, particularly in pick-and-roll situations and rebounding. Last season at Michigan, Kordel played limited minutes due to the team's strong frontcourt, but he is anticipated to see a significant increase in playing time at Minnesota. His arrival allows teammate Chadrack Mpoyi to redshirt and develop further. The Gophers are also in need of additional starting-caliber players, particularly in the guard position, to strengthen their roster for the upcoming season.
