the glue-guy guard who brought toughness, length, and winning habits to Norfolk State
In the 2020-21 season, Kyonze Chavis gave Norfolk State versatile two-way value as a 6-4 guard, averaging 7.5 points, 3.8 rebounds, 1.8 assists and 1.1 steals while shooting 45.5% from the field and 37.0% from three.[1] He ranked 15th in the MEAC in steals and showed real big-game utility, including 12 points and a career-high four steals against Gonzaga in the NCAA tournament.[1][2] The bigger appeal: he played with edge, defended with activity, and fit winning basketball; that steady, physical style is why Norfolk State trusted him enough to keep him close as a coach later on.[2][3]
