Notre Dame among schools Wright State forward will visit

With Notre Dame losing almost all of its returning depth at forward, it will take any help it can get at that position. However, relief could be coming in the form of Grant Basile, who will look elsewhere to use up his remaining eligibility after four years at Wright State. Notre Dame is one of four programs Basile will visit over the next few weeks:

Basile ranked first in rebounds and second in scoring for the Raiders this past season. That meant he played a big role in the Raiders reaching their first NCAA Tournament since 2018, which was made possible by them winning the Horizon League Tournament. He led the Raiders with 21 points in their first-round loss to Arizona, the top seed in the South Regional.

After playing only three games as a freshman, Basile appeared in 92 games over the next three years, starting 56 of them, including all 36 as a senior. For his career, he is averaging 12.9 points and 6.5 rebounds a game while shooting 52.7% from the field.

Basile’s lone game against an ACC opponent came this past season at NC State. In an 84-70 Raiders win, he dominated with 23 points, a career-high 16 rebounds and four assists.
