Former Bearcats wing with NBA bloodlines and a physical edge
Shaq Thomas was a 6-foot-7 forward for Cincinnati who arrived as a top-100 recruit and brought length, toughness, and perimeter size to the Bearcats. In his UC career, he was known as a high-energy slasher and defender with family basketball pedigree, and he battled through injuries, including an ankle issue in 2016 that cost him time. If you value a wing who plays hard, rebounds, and can give you versatility on the perimeter, he was an appealing fit.
