“I’m excited to announce the signing of KJ,” CSI head coach Jeff Reinert said in a press release. “We were looking for depth and shooting at the guard spot. KJ was one of the top scorers in Detroit a year ago and has an excellent ability from long range. We lost our starting five players and most of our backcourt. We need talented players coming in to pick up the slack and KJ will have an opportunity to do that.”
CSI graduated its two starting guards — Jaylon Johnson and Asim Jones.
Morrast is the second announced signee for 2024-25, joining former Brigham Young University walk-on guard and Eagle High School alum Tanner Hayhurst.
