"I am excited about next season," Dunn said. "I have seen this program accomplish a lot over the last three seasons and I would like to be part of some more success. I really enjoy being around my teammates, coaches and all the friends and family I have in Friartown. Lastly, I am looking forward to continuing my growth, improving as a basketball player and earning my diploma."
Dunn also earned the conference's Defensive Player of the Year award during a breakout sophomore campaign in which he led the Big East in both assists (7.5 per game) and steals (2.7).
