What Mizzou men's hoops adding transfer Jayden Stone means for backcourt

COLUMBIA, Mo. — Has Missouri found its next 3-point shooter? Maybe, though the Tigers’ latest transfer portal addition is especially difficult to decipher.

Mizzou men’s basketball picked up a commitment from combo guard Jayden Stone this week, bringing in a perimeter presence to fill the program’s second-to-last available roster spot.

For a team in need of shooting and wing options, the 6-foot-4 veteran guard could bring that — but an extended injury and unique past stop add some unpredictability to what MU is getting.

Stone, who hails from Perth, Australia, is technically a transfer from West Virginia, where he spent this past season.
