Connor Walden gives UMass Boston a long, versatile stretch-four with real scoring pop
In the 2025-26 season, Connor Walden is a 6'7" senior forward for UMass Boston, and the profile is clear: length, floor-spacing, and underrated rebound/defense juice. The Beacons’ own coverage has shown he can swing games with efficient shot-making, including a 24-point outburst with eight rebounds and a 19-point, eight-rebound performance in 2024, and a campus media scout called him a “do-it-all stretch four” who adds athletic defense and physicality. If your team wants a forward who can stretch the floor, compete on the glass, and bring energy without needing the offense spoon-fed to him, Walden is absolutely worth a look.
