a 6-8 frontcourt piece who brought size, touch, and Kentucky pedigree to Akron
Euton was a 6-8 forward from Georgetown, Kentucky, who arrived at Akron with legit size and a versatile frontcourt build; Akron listed him as a freshman forward in 2010-11, and stat archives show he played sparingly in that season, with career-high NCAA game production of 7 points against Dayton on Nov. 16, 2010. His value was less about box-score splash and more about upside: a big body, rebounder’s frame, and the kind of recruit whose profile drew attention because of his high-school production and Kentucky background. If a team wanted a developmental forward with size and raw skill, that was the pitch; if it wanted immediate high-volume impact, the numbers say patience was required.
