BOULDER – University of Colorado men’s basketball senior Tory Miller-Stewart will pursue a graduate transfer for the 2018-19 season, head coach Tad Boyle announced on Tuesday.

Miller-Stewart averaged 6.2 points and 4.7 rebounds over the first six games of the season before a broken bone in his foot sidelined him for the rest of the year. He is scheduled to graduate in May with his degree in Environmental Studies, and with that status, will be able to enroll in graduate school at another institution and be eligible for a final season immediately.

“After careful consultation with Tory and his family, it was collectively determined to be in his best interest both academically and athletically, to look at other graduate options,” Boyle said.

A 6-foot, 9-inch forward from Kansas City, Kan., Miller-Stewart played in 101 games for the Buffaloes over his four-year career averaging 4.8 points and 3.7 rebounds while hitting over 50 percent from the field. His shooting skyrocketed to 59 percent over his final 27 games, dating back to the beginning of the 2016-17 Pac-12 Conference schedule.

“We wish all the best for Tory,” Boyle said. “He’s been a great teammate and competitor during his four years in our program. He will always be a Colorado Buffalo.”
