The University of Minnesota men's basketball team joined together for the first time under head coach Niko Medved on Monday, June 9, 2025. The Golden Gophers moved into on campus housing the previous week and met as a team for the first time Sunday June 8 before holding its first practice on Minnesota's first day of classes on June 9.

Kai Shinholster, the lone freshman on the team, graduated from William Penn Charter School (Philadelphia) Saturday, June 7 and was already on campus the next day. The Gophers returned three from last year's squad (Isaac Asuma, Grayson Grove and Erick Reader), and added 10 newcomers into the fold: Jaylen Crocker-Johnson, Bobby Durkin, BJ Omot, Langston Reynolds, Shinholster, Chance Stephens, Nehemiah Turner, Cade Tyson, Robert Vaihola and Chansey Willis Jr.

Take a look back at the Gophers' first week on campus through social media:
