Local Tulsa guard with size, shot-making touch, and defensive grit
Benton is a 6-4 guard for Tulsa who is still early in his college role, but his profile suggests a useful two-way perimeter piece: in the 2024-25 season at Pacific, he played 19 games, hit 12 threes, and posted a .333 mark from deep while also producing a career-high three steals in one game[4][5]. His best differentiators are size for the position, willingness to defend, and evidence of confidence as a catch-and-shoot threat. He also brings local familiarity to Tulsa, which can matter in culture-fit and buy-in, though he is still more developmental depth than proven high-usage scorer[4].
