Jalen Graham will be back.

The Razorbacks forward announced on Twitter Wednesday evening that he’s returning to Arkansas next year for his second season with the program. Graham spent 3 seasons at Arizona State before moving to Fayetteville this past offseason, and though the role was inconsistent throughout his debut year with the Hogs, it would appear he’s got more to prove.

The Phoenix native averaged 5.2 points and 2.3 rebounds a game for Arkansas this year, all while seeing a career-low 9.4 minutes of playing time a night. His final 2 years at Arizona State, he started 41 of his 50 appearances.

And yet Graham stayed the course. At times throughout the year, he exploded with huge performances when called upon. In 19 minutes against UNC Asheville on Dec. 21, Graham put up 16 points on 8-of-10 shooting. A month later against Alabama, he totaled 16 points and 5 boards in 19 minutes.

On Feb. 18 against Florida, Graham got 27 minutes off the bench and scored a career-best 26 points to go with 7 rebounds and 2 blocks.

The Razorbacks are also getting back Trevon Brazile and the Mitchell twins in the frontcourt. Five-star big man Baye Fall is also set to join the program.
