Nicolas Timberlake (Towson)

Timberlake will enter his sixth and final collegiate basketball season after spending the past five with the Towson Tigers.

The Jayhawks swooped in last minute in his recruitment to bring in a consistent weapon from 3-point range, Outside of his sharpshooting, he can also attack the basket when necessary.

Timberlake shot 41.6% from deep last season and 37.9% behind the arc throughout his college career. Whether it be off the bench or starting alongside Dajuan Harris at the 2, he figures to be a scoring threat that opposing teams will need to watch out for at all times.

It will be interesting to see how his play compares in the Big 12 versus the CAA. If he can keep up with the best conference in college basketball from both sides of the floor, Timberlake will be yet another significant factor toward Kansas’ season.
