Drake, Missouri Valley Conference
The centerpiece for this team will be the same as it has been for the previous two seasons, Tucker DeVries. DeVries, son of head coach Darian DeVries,
is the reigning MVC Player of the Year after averaging 18.3 points for
the conference champion. Drake also returns leading rebounder and shot
blocker Darnell Brodie. Brodie is a 6-foot-10 center who started his
college career at Seton Hall. The Bulldogs were also active in the transfer portal bringing double-digit scoring guards Kyron Gibson (UT-Arlington) and Atin Wright (Cal State Northridge) as well as 6-foot-7 forward Carlos Rosario from Washington State.
While each of the transfers should play prominent roles this season, a fourth transfer could be the one to watch. Ethan Roberts is a 6-foot-5 wing from Army and was the Patriot League Rookie of the Year last season after averaging 12.4 points on 40.7 percent from three.
