Tarris Reed Jr. Transfers to UConn, Bolsters Huskies' Roster

Former Michigan center Tarris Reed Jr. has committed to UConn, reinforcing the team as it aims for a third consecutive national title.

  • Tarris Reed Jr., a 6-foot-10 sophomore, averaged 9.0 points and 7.2 rebounds last season at Michigan.
  • Reed's decision follows the departure of Donovan Clingan, who entered the NBA draft after leading UConn to two national championships.
  • Reed, known for his defensive skills and work ethic, is expected to compete for a starting position with UConn's Samson Johnson.
  • The transfer comes after Michigan's disappointing 8-24 season and the firing of coach Juwan Howard.
  • UConn's coaching staff views Reed as a key addition to maintain their winning culture and competitive edge.
