While E.J. Liddell and Malaki Branham’s futures with the Ohio State men’s basketball program were two which were clearly pivotal to the team moving forward, another player had a big choice to make which also will have huge ramifications — Justice Sueing.
Sueing, who first transferred to Ohio State from Cal in 2019, averaged 10.7 points and 5.5 rebounds per game over 31 games during the 2020-2021 season. He was a key starter on an Ohio State team that came minutes away from winning the Big Ten Tournament and subsequently earned a 2-seed in the NCAA Tournament.
