Little Rock’s 6’9” Freshman Forward Anchors State’s Top Recruiting Win
Terrion Burgess, a 6’9”, 200-lb freshman forward from Benton, AR, is Little Rock’s most impactful 2025 recruiting addition, bringing elite size and state-top-tier versatility to the Trojans’ frontcourt[1][3]. Committed in late June 2025 as a Power Forward, Burgess differentiates himself with a rare blend of physicality and agility for his height, making him a natural fit for teams needing interior defense and secondary scoring[4][5]. While his 2025-26 per-game stats are still emerging as a freshman, his intensity and basketball IQ stand out in early exhibitions, including a competitive showing against Marquette despite the team’s 89-49 loss[2]. No injury history is reported, and his calm, team-first personality suggests high coachability. If you’re building a roster with long-term frontcourt potential, Burgess offers immediate differentiators and upside that statistics alone can’t capture.
