Andrej Stojakovic is going to bring supreme basketball talent to one lucky college basketball program.

The Cal Golden Bear and son of NBA great Peja Stojakovic officially announced his intention to transfer on social media on Sunday.

His choice is also reportedly down to his final three.

According to college basketball insider Jon Rothstein, Stojakovic is choosing between these three schools:

  • Illinois
  • North Carolina
  • Stanford

Rothstein reports that Stojakovic's choice is expected this week.

Stojakovic's most interesting path would be Stanford, which is where he began his college career before transferring to Cal.

His two best games with the Golden Bears came in the ACC Tournament, when he put up a 29-point outing and then followed it up by dropping 37.

Andrej, at 6-foot-7, was ranked as the consensus No. 23 recruit in the 2023 class.

Andrej's father finished as high as fourth in the NBA MVP voting, when in 2003-04 he averaged 24.2 points per game and shot 43.3 percent from 3-point range and 92.7 percent at the foul line.

The Serbian-born Peja went on to appear in games for the Indiana Pacers, New Orleans Hornets, Toronto Raptors and the Mavericks. Dallas was Peja's last stop, in 2010-11, and he averaged 8.6 points per game.

Andrej is the oldest of three boys that are Peja's sons.

Soon, he'll have his next college basketball home, and one program will be lucky enough to add him.
