Durable, two-way center who anchored Sacramento State with rim protection and steady scoring
Patton was a highly durable Sacramento State big man who never missed a game, started his final 93 straight, and finished his Hornets career with 1,226 points, the most by any Sacramento State center. His calling card was interior impact: rim protection, reliable rebounding, and enough scoring touch to punish double teams, including a 13.0-point, 6.4-rebound junior season and 1.1 blocks per game in 2016-17. For a team, he fits as a physical, dependable center who brings toughness, consistency, and proven production in the paint.
