ATHENS (AP) — Georgia guard Juwan Parker has been awarded a medical redshirt, leaving him with two years of eligibility, after missing the 2015-16 season with a partially torn Achilles tendon.
Parker, from Tulsa, Oklahoma, played in Georgia's exhibition game against Armstrong State but missed the regular season. He originally suffered the injury in the 2014-15 season, when he averaged 4.9 points and 3.7 rebounds while starting 14 games.
Parker will be a junior in the 2016-17 season.
Georgia also announced that forward Osahen Iduwe will transfer after averaging 0.5 points in 18 games.
Iduwe, from Nigeria, attended Central Park Christian School in Birmingham, Alabama, in 2012-13 and St. John's Northwestern Military Academy in Delafield, Wisconsin, in 2013-14.
