Danny Stephens brings size, versatility, and proven scoring touch to Western Illinois
Stephens is a 6-6 guard/forward who offers Western Illinois a multi-positional wing with a track record of high-volume scoring, rebounding, and efficient free-throw shooting from his prep days, and in the 2025-26 season he has averaged 5.5 points and 2.2 rebounds while carving out a role with the Leathernecks.[2][7] His biggest differentiators are his length, ability to impact both ends, and the fact that he has already shown resilience after missing time at Missouri because of injuries before transferring to WIU.[4] If you want a versatile, experienced wing who can defend, rebound, and grow into more offense, he’s a solid fit.[3][4]
