veteran floor general with homegrown poise and steady playmaking
Casey Benson’s Grand Canyon run was defined by senior-season steadiness in 2017-18, when he averaged 9.7 points, 4.2 rebounds, and 4.5 assists while starting 34 games and logging 29.2 minutes per night. He’s a classic connective guard: smart, composed, and capable of running an offense without hijacking it, with enough rebounding grit and defensive activity to help in non-scoring ways. The fit question is simple—if a team wants a high-IQ, unselfish backcourt organizer, Benson checks the box; if it wants a score-first burst, he’s more metronome than microwave.
