Anyone who’s watched even a minute of Penn State basketball over the past three seasons knows Lamar Stevens.

At 6-foot-8, 225 pounds, he’s hard to miss not only because of his hulking figure, but also because his durability means he’s almost always on the floor and actively engaged on both ends of the floor. For a program which has yearned for a marquee player to create a winning culture, Stevens has been a model of consistency.
