Anton Grady, formerly of Cleveland State; Immediately Eligible

2014-15 Stat Line: 14.3 points, 7.9 rebounds, 1.4 blocks, 1.5 steals, 48% field goals

The second of the Cleveland State transfers on the market (Trey Lewis committed to Louisville), Anton Grady is a name that few don’t know but could see him make a big impact on somebody’s season.

A 6-foot-8 athletic forward, Grady has heard from a vast number of teams as of a few days ago, per ESPN’s Goodman:

Kansas is probably out of the mix now after gaining Cheick Diallo to round out their recruiting efforts, as well as all the players the Jayhawks will be retaining from last year’s conference title squad.

Wichita State could very well be in play here. The Shockers have a winning reputation, two potential All-Americans in Fred VanVleet and Ron Baker coming back and Gregg Marshall returning to coach.

Dayton also could very well be in the mix. With their forwards being extremely depleted last year, the Flyers still managed to have a very successful year and as long as Archie Miller sticks around, Dayton will continue to be a sexy pick to win the Atlantic-10.

NC State also seems like a possibility, though his playing time could be a bit limited with Abdul-Malik Abu and Beejay Anya both back after great showings in the NCAA tournament. Grady’s recruitment is still relatively fresh, so it’s early in the process and we won’t know much until he’s had a chance to visit more schools.

Guess: Grady to Dayton
