Stone redshirted his single season with the Mountaineers after suffering an undisclosed upper-body injury during practice in October. With just one year of eligibility remaining, he will spend it at Mizzou Arena.
The 6-foot-4 senior transferred to West Virginia after spending two seasons at Detroit Mercy.
For the Titans, the Perth, Australia, product averaged 20.8 points, 5.6 rebounds, 2.7 assists and 1.5 steals in the 2023-24 season. He shot 42.2% from the field and 31.2% from 3-point range in 26 games played.
Before his tenure in Detroit, Stone spent two seasons at Grand Canyon.
In 69 career games played, Stone averaged 12 points, 3.7 rebounds and 1.8 assists, shooting 43.2% from the field and 34.7% from beyond the arc.
Stone is the latest addition of a transfer class that includes Jevon Porter, Sebastian Mack, Luke Northweather and Shawn Phillips Jr.
The five-man transfer group joins fellow newcomers Aaron Rowe and Nicholas Randall as well as returners Mark Mitchell, Anthony Robinson II, Trent Pierce, Jacob Crews, T.O. Barrett, Annor Boateng and Trent Burns on head coach Dennis Gates' 2025-26 roster.
