4/12/2024 4:33:00 PM | Men's Basketball
University of Minnesota men's basketball forward Parker Fox will use his last year of eligibility and return to the Golden Gopher program for the 2024-25 season.Â
Fox, a 6-8, 220-pound forward, came to the University of Minnesota after three years at Northern State in 2021-22. However, back-to-back season-ending knee injuries sidelined him for both the 2021-22 and 2022-23 Gopher seasons. In 2023-24, Fox became Minnesota's sixth man and was one of just two Gophers to play in all 34 games. The Mahtomedi, Minn., product averaged 14 minutes, 5.1 points and 2.9 rebounds. He also contributed 27 blocks, 25 assists and 18 steals this past season. Fox scored double-digit points in seven games this past year and earned a start against Penn State (3/2/24). Â
