TCU forward Jaedon LeDee granted immediate eligibility. What he’ll bring to the Frogs
TCU basketball player Jaedon LeDee has been granted an immediate eligibility waiver by the NCAA, sources said, and is expected to play tonight against Air Force.
LeDee, a 6-foot-9, 235-pound forward, spent one season at Ohio State. He saw action in 26 games, averaging 3.0 points and 1.7 rebounds in 6.6 minutes per game.
LeDee is expected to become a significant part of the Frogs’ front court. Those around the program consider him an “elite rebounder.”
The team has to fill the void left by JD Miller.
LeDee had a standout high school career at The Kinkaid School in Houston. He averaged 27 points and 15 rebounds his senior season, and was rated as a four-star prospect by 247Sports.
TCU (2-0) and Air Force tip off at 8 p.m. at Schollmaier Arena.
