Fordham forward Jesse Bunting will miss the rest of 2018-19 as he recovers from a stroke suffered on Monday, the school confirmed.

The school said the stroke was “minor” and that Bunting is “resting comfortably” at a Manhattan hospital. He is in stable condition, sources told SI’s Jon Rothstein.

The senior forward appeared in 28 games for Fordham this season, scoring 6.6 points per game. His 5.1 rebounds per game are second on the Rams behind junior Chuba Ohams. Bunting came to Fordham in 2015 as the No. 5 recruit in Massachusetts, according to 247Sports.
