Maryland: Korean Forward Returns Home to Enter Pro League

Maryland sophomore forward Jin Soo Choi announced that he will leave the Terrapins to pursue a professional career in South Korea, according to an Associated Press report.
Choi is the first South Korean native to receive a Division I scholarship. And he didn’t make much of an impact in College Park. Choi averaged 0.8 points and 1.1 rebounds in nine games this season. He posted averages of 1.6 points and 1.1 rebounds in 21 games last season.
His departure shortens the Terrapins’ depth for a bench that averages only 14.2 points per game. At times this season, the Terrapins have struggled on offense, especially when senior star Greivis Vasquez is resting on the bench or struggling to score.
