Dexter Dennis has all the tools to be the next great Wichita State basketball player.
The supreme athleticism, the silky shooting stroke from outside, the size at 6-foot-5 to become a lockdown defender.
He’s already become a fan favorite entering the Shockers’ regular-season finale at Tulane in a CBS Sports Network game that tips off at 7:30 p.m. Saturday. Dennis has scored the most points as a true freshman at WSU since Toure’ Murry in 2009.
But Dennis’ greatest weapon is his determination. He doesn’t want to become the best basketball player he can be just for himself; he’s playing for more than that.
