Dexter Akanno brings veteran wing scoring and timely shot-making to Utah State
In the 2024-25 season, Dexter Akanno was a reliable 6-foot-5 guard/wing for Utah State, playing in all 34 games with 13 starts and averaging 24.9 minutes per game, plus 8.5 points, 3.4 rebounds, and 1.2 assists in Mountain West play. He popped as a big-moment scorer, including a 26-point outburst against San Diego State on 9-of-12 shooting with 7-of-9 from three. What makes him useful is his mature, low-drama, plug-and-play fit: he spaces the floor, can score without needing high usage, and brings older-player steadiness that helps a contender.
