Fully cleared Kaiser (ankle) is fully cleared for basketball-related activities, according to Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports.

Impact For the NCAA's 2024-25 season, Kaiser used a redshirt due to one of his ankles not being at 100 percent. That is no longer the case as he enters his first season with a new college, Butler. As part of Maryland, Kaiser logged 4.4 points and 2.0 rebounds per game.

Set to redshirt 2024-2025 Kaiser (ankle) will redshirt during the 2024-2025 season, per the IndyStar.

Impact Kaiser, a Maryland transfer, has yet to play this season while nursing an ankle injury, and Butler will need to wait until the 2025-2026 campaign to deploy their guard. He'll have three seasons of eligibility remaining still, but his loss hurts Butler's depth for the time being.

Out indefinitely Kaiser is out indefinitely due to an ankle injury, per Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports.

Impact Considering that Kaiser is one of only two players who transferred to Butler from Power Conference schools back in the summer, him being out indefinitely is a big deal. The team does not even have multiple weeks before its upcoming season begins, so his absence stretching into regular-season action is definitely a possibility.
