Syracuse center Chinonso Obokoh will transfer and play at St. Bonaventure, according to a report from CBS Sports college basketball reporter Jon Rothstein.

Syracuse transfer Chinonso Obokoh has committed to St. Bonaventure, source told @CBSSports. Immediately eligible. — Jon Rothstein (@JonRothstein) May 7, 2016

Obokoh announced his intention to transfer shortly after the season ended in hopes of finding more playing time. At Syracuse, he likely would have been the team's fourth option at center next year behind Dajuan Coleman, Paschal Chukwu and Tyler Lydon.

The Bonnies did not list a center on their roster this year and graduated leading rebounder Dion Wright, creating a need in the interior. Obokoh will have at least one season to play and could earn a second year with a successful appeal to the NCAA. He should graduate at the end of the semester, which would make him eligible to play immediately for the Bonnies.

Obokoh played a total of 11 games last year and saw 67 minutes of action. Rutgers was also reportedly interested in Obokoh. Obokoh played high school for Rochester's Bishop Kearney High School and AAU basketball for the Albany City Rocks.

He is the second Syracuse player to transfer this offseason and find room at a quality mid-major. Guard Kaleb Joseph is transferring to Creighton next season.
