Freshman forward Jaden Steppe has announced he intends to transfer from the Colorado State men's basketball program.
The 6-foot-8, 220-pound Steppe played in a limited reserve role in 2024-25, appearing in seven games for 12 total minutes.
Steppe was rated by ESPN as a four-star recruit out of Tualatin High School in Oregon, where he helped lead his team to back-to-back state titles.
He announced his intention to transfer Monday on X. He has three seasons of eligibility remaining.

Steppe entering the portal isn't an unexpected move and a potential role for him as a Ram next season was uncertain. He's the second CSU player in the portal, following starting point guard Kyan Evans.
