With longtime walk-on Kendall Shell getting his degree and moving on, the University of Minnesota men's basketball team has added another guard for the coming fall.
Stephon Sharp, a Minneapolis native who played at Hopkins High School, will walk on along with the 2015 class, a source confirmed to the Star Tribune.
The 6-4 shooter spent last season at The Kent School in Connecticut before returning home. He joins Mike Lukashewich and Darin Haugh as the third non-scholarship player on the roster.
