Louisville basketball has landed some outside shooting help for the future in the form of Miami transfer Matt Cross, who committed to the program Thursday night.
Excited to become apart of the Louisville! I appreciate coach Mack and the staff for giving me opportunity! ⚫️

A former four-star recruit, Cross’ freshman season came to an abrupt end on Jan. 28 when it was announced that he and Miami would be mutually parting ways. Before that, Cross was averaging 6.9 points and 3.4 rebounds per game. He was the first freshman to start a Hurricane season-opener since 2013.
Ironically, the most impressive performance of Cross’ college career to date came against Louisville. The 6’7 forward torched the Cards from the outside, drilling 4-of-7 three-pointers and scoring 16 points in the Hurricanes’ 78-72 upset.
Matt Cross of Miami is an interesting Freshman to watch. High level shooting prospect (48.5% w/ .569 3PAr), and he's 6'7" with a sturdy frame. Has real passing vision and good stock numbers (1.7 stl%, 2.6 blk%). pic.twitter.com/W8Xk64DaIP

Cross’ skillset would seem to fit perfectly into what Chris Mack likes to do on both ends of the floor, and his shooting ability is an asset that the Cards could clearly use right now.
It’s also worth mentioning that the last transfer Louisville received by way of Jim Larranaga wound up working out pretty well.
