ADD - G Dante Maddox Jr., Toledo

2023-24 Statistics: 32 G, 15.6 PPG, 4.3 RPG, 2.8 APG, 1.4 SPG, 43.8% FG, 2.3 3PM, 40.2% 3PT

Maddox entered the portal as a graduate transfer and garnered interest from some high-level programs, including Kansas. Although he is a small guard, he draws contact near the basket and is an excellent 3-point shooter. He shot 45.1% from three one year prior.

If he is willing to take on a smaller role, he would come off the second unit with fellow guard Riley Kugel to bolster KU's depth. Maddox could be a tremendous bench piece who offers shooting and playmaking as the sixth or seventh man in the rotation.
