Bakari Evelyn brings transfer-tested backcourt production and steady guard play to Iowa
Bakari Evelyn’s Iowa profile points to a veteran guard who can help as a secondary playmaker and floor-stretcher: in his Iowa season he averaged 3.7 points, 2.0 assists, and 1.5 rebounds, while ESPN lists him at 7.2 points, 2.0 rebounds, and 2.0 assists overall[1][2]. His broader résumé shows higher-usage scoring ability, including a 25.4-point, 5.3-rebound, 4.3-assist senior season at Hillcrest Prep and a productive stretch at Nebraska, which suggests toughness, adaptability, and guard versatility rather than one-dimensional scoring[3][4]. If you want a transfer who can handle pressure, create for others, and bring mature, experienced backcourt depth, he fits that profile[1][3][4].
