NCAA Basketball: Ranking final 4 teams for Hofstra transfer Aaron Estrada

The NCAA Basketball career arc for Aaron Estrada has been one of the more wild ones in recent memory. As a freshman at St. Peter’s, the 6’4 guard averaged 8.1 ppg in 14 starts. He then made the interesting decision to transfer up to Oregon in the Pac-12.

That move didn’t pay off, as he was limited to just nine games total as a sophomore with no production. Estrada transferred downward to the CAA level, picking the Hofstra Pride. That proved to be his best decision yet. As a junior, Estrada led the team with 18.5 ppg, 5.7 rpg, and 5.0 apg on 48% shooting from the field and 94% from the free throw line.

He put up even better numbers as a senior this past season. The guard was one of the best players in the CAA with 20.2 ppg, including 5.5 rpg and 4.3 apg. He shot a career-high 37% from three-point range on six attempts and made his second all-league team.

After leading Hofstra to a regular-season title, Estrada entered the transfer portal for the third time, this time as a grad transfer with one year of eligibility. He became of the highest-scoring transfers in the portal and had plenty of interest. But now, there are just four teams remaining for his services.

Which of these four programs makes the most sense for Estrada? Here’s how I would rank the finalists when it comes to the best potential fit.
