Texas forward Dylan Disu is returning for another season of Texas basketball. He took to Twitter on Sunday to let fans know his intention to come back.
The announcement is colossal news for the basketball program who has had a conspicuously uneventful offseason in the transfer portal. Disu’s return is the type of news the program might need to spark action on that front.
The Pflugerville product looked like a future NBA player last season, particularly in the Big 12 Tournament and NCAA Tournament. Disu was near automatic in mid-range and rescued the team from offensive lulls late in the season.
With his return, Texas now has a go-to scorer with solid shooting range for a post player. Now new head coach Rodney Terry will look to build around him for the 2023 season.
For now, Disu is joined by veteran forward Brock Cunningham, returning reserve players Gavin Perryman and Alex Anamekwe, and highly regarded forward Ron Holland. The team will look to add veteran guards and post presences with what remains of the transfer portal.
