Ben Benfield brings perimeter shooting and gritty two-way effort to Tulane’s backcourt
Ben Benfield is a guard whose value comes from his shot-making, rebounding from the backcourt, and a reputation for playing with high effort rather than just putting up tidy box-score numbers. Tulane’s own coverage has described him as a strong shooter who “redefines himself” with hustle, and his career profile shows he finished among the program’s top three-point producers while also contributing on the glass[4][5]. ESPN lists him as averaging 4.6 points, 1.7 rebounds, and 0.9 assists with 36.9% shooting, suggesting a role player who can fit if you want spacing, toughness, and team-first energy[2].
