Former Maryland guard signs with new Big Ten team
In this story:
Former Maryland guard Chance Stephens has signed with Minnesota, according to CBS Sports' Matt Zenitz.
Stephens spent his freshman season at Loyola Marymount in 2022-23 before transferring to Maryland for the 2023-24 season. Unfortunately an injury would force him to miss his entire sophomore season with the Terps, but he returned the following year (2024-25) and played limited minutes.
