Freshman guard Dorian Hayes is giving UTSA steady minutes, playmaking, and disruptive defense
In the 2025-26 season, Dorian Hayes has emerged as a full-time starter for UTSA, averaging roughly 8–9 points, 2 rebounds, and 2 assists per game while also contributing about 1 steal a night. He is a 6-5 freshman with size for a guard, comes from a decorated Houston-area prep background, and has already shown he can handle real usage and defensive assignments. The upside is clear, but his biggest swing skill is efficiency—he’s been inconsistent as a scorer, so he fits best with a team that values length, effort, and developing shot creation.
