Florida basketball player Denzel Aberdeen wins court ruling for fifth year of eligibility in the United States

In the United States, college basketball eligibility has become a contentious issue. The NCAA's new five-year eligibility rule excluded the high school class of 2022, prompting lawsuits. Florida guard Denzel Aberdeen, who transferred to Kentucky and back, won a court injunction for a fifth year, clearing him to play. St. John's coach Rick Pitino faces similar issues with his players, but expects them to be resolved. The U.S. Senate passed the Protect College Sports Act, but it is seen as inadequate. The situation creates uncertainty for players and programs.
