On Wednesday Cherry native Isaac Asuma announced he will return to the Minnesota Gophers men’s basketball team next season. It’s a big win for new head coach Niko Medved, who was officially introduced on Tuesday.

Asuma, a former four star recruit, posted on social media, “Minnesota is home, can’t wait to get started building for next season!”

A freshman this winter, the 6’3” guard averaged 5.6 points, 2.9 rebounds and 2.1 assists in 32 games with the Gophers.
