Stanford’s high-motor, defense-first forward
Huestis built his Stanford reputation as a 6-7, 230-pound forward who brought elite rebounding and shot-blocking for a wing-sized player, averaging 7.5 points, 6.2 rebounds and 1.4 blocks over 135 college games, with a career-high 10.5 points and team-best 9.0 rebounds in 2013-14[2][4]. His differentiator was impact beyond the box score: length, intensity, and a grinder’s mentality that made him valuable as a defensive disruptor and energy piece rather than a pure scorer[4][6].
