Indiana basketball has secured a significant addition to its backcourt for the upcoming season. Georgia Tech transfer guard Jaeden Mustaf, a former four-star recruit, has committed to the Hoosiers via the NCAA Transfer Portal.
Mustaf, a sophomore, brings immediate scoring and athleticism to Bloomington. Last season for the Yellow Jackets, he averaged 10.4 points and 4.3 rebounds per game, showcasing the potential that made him a coveted prospect in the 2024 class.
His decision comes during a period of transition for Georgia Tech, which recently parted ways with head coach Damon Stoudamire and hired Scott Cross from Troy. For Indiana, Mustaf arrives as a timely replacement for shooting guard Nick Dorn, who entered the transfer portal after one season with the program.
Dorn provided a solid outside shooting threat for the Hoosiers, averaging 8.1 points per game and connecting on 38% of his three-point attempts last season. Mustaf's broader offensive skill set and higher recruiting pedigree offer Indiana a chance to elevate its perimeter play.
In the ever-competitive Big Ten, where elite guard play is a necessity, this move signals Indiana's intent to bolster its roster. Mustaf's blend of size, scoring ability, and experience in a major conference like the ACC makes him a player to watch as the Hoosiers aim to climb the conference standings and return to national prominence.
