a bursty, versatile guard whose game has been defined by efficiency flashes and steady role-player value
Israel is a Northern Kentucky guard whose value shows up in short-burst scoring, shot-making, and energy off the bench: he averaged 2.1 points in 15 games in 2024-25 after playing 23 games and making two starts as a freshman in 2023-24, when he averaged 4.2 points and 2.3 rebounds, and he earned Horizon League Freshman of the Week after a 15-point, five-rebound outing and a week shooting 9-of-12 from the field and 5-of-7 from three. He looks like a fit for teams needing a competitive, low-usage perimeter piece, though his sophomore season was limited by injury and his current production is more complementary than primary.[3][8][11]
