USC recently picked up the commitment of Bronny James who is the son of NBA superstar Lebron James. Rodman is eligible to play a fifth season of college basketball due to the impact the Coronavirus had on the 2020-21 college basketball season.

Last season as a senior for the Washington State Cougars, DJ Rodman averaged 9.6 points, 5.8 rebounds, and 1.4 assists per game. He paired those numbers with a field goal percentage of 41.3 percent and a three-point percentage of 38.1 percent. Rodman brings upperclassman experience to a roster that has plenty of talent for the 2023-24 college basketball season. While Rodman doesn’t have much traction for the 2024 NBA Draft, this season could prove vital in him improving his stock for the NBA, the NBA G League, or an overseas league. Rodman and Bronny James will be on the same team next season with winning games being their main focus.
