Richard Laku brings low-usage, high-effort forward play to McNeese
In the 2025-26 season, Richard Laku has given McNeese a role-player forward profile: modest scoring, limited playmaking, and a respectable field-goal touch, with ESPN listing him at 2.5 points, 1.2 rebounds, 0.2 assists, and 33.9% shooting.[7] What makes him interesting is the fit factor—he looks like a glue guy rather than a stat-stuffer, and his blocks/rebounding flashes suggest activity and length that can translate in the right system.[6][7] For a team wanting energy, defense-first minutes, and a low-drama complement to higher-usage scorers, he is worth a look.[6][7]
