Wake Forest Basketball Preview: Austin Arians

The Wake Forest Basketball program added 6-6 forward Austin Arians this offseason as a graduate transfer from Milwaukee. As a red-shirt junior for the Panthers last season, he started in all 33 games, averaging 11.4 points per game and 3.8 rebounds per game.

Strengths:

Arians is a fantastic shooter from beyond the arc. He has a quick, smooth shot that he can get off with just a small amount of space. Last season he shot 35% from beyond the arc for the Panthers, and made 79 total 3-pointers. That total puts him well ahead of any player for the Deacs, as Crawford led the team with 56 total 3-pointers made during the 2015-2016 season.
