Donovan Atwell (G - UNC Greensboro)
Measurables: 6-5 190 lbs from Huntersville, North Carolina
Years Remaining: 1
Notes: I hope you like shooters. Atwell averaged 13.3 ppg, and 3.4 rpg in 2024-25 at UNC Greensboro and was one of the best shooters in the country shooting 40.2% from on 7.5 attempts per game (!!!). He is a career 39.3% 3-point shooter over 537 college attempts. He's an active spot-up shooter who understands spacing well and always has his hands ready to shoot. The lefty isn’t great off the bounce but can be involved in P&R sets. He excellent pick-and-pop guy (as the PBH). Watching him on film, I love watching him run off ball screens. He understands leverage well and reads a defense well to create the maximum amount of space to shoot from deep consistently. He’s a decent rebounder in that 3 to 4 per-game region.
Overall Thoughts: I’d love to see Atwell as a more athletic Kerwin Walton replacement. He’s a guy that I think could give quality starter-type minutes any given night (think KO this season) and a guy that can guard 1 through 3. He’s a target for the Red Raiders in the portal, so don’t be surprised if you hear Texas Tech is heavily involved in his recruitment.
