WKU’s 6-foot-10 Latvian post presence with real finishing touch
In his WKU run, Aleksej Rostov was a sturdy 6-foot-10 forward who gave the Hilltoppers a physical interior option, shot 50.6% from the floor in the 2015-16 season, and brought dependable rebounding and offensive-rebound hustle across multiple seasons. He’s the kind of big who helps teams by occupying space, playing through contact, and giving steady minutes rather than flashy box-score fireworks. The caution flag: his production profile was modest, and he wasn’t a volume scorer, so his value was more about toughness, size, and role stability than star power.
