Washington’s steady, scrappy floor general
In the 2008–09 season, Dentmon was a tone-setter for Washington: he led the Huskies in steals with 52 and free-throw shooting at 81.4%, while also ranking second in assists at 3.7 per game. He played bigger than his 5-11 frame, bringing pressure defense, toughness, and a calm, veteran feel to a team that reached the Sweet Sixteen. If you want a guard who competes on every possession, gets under opponents’ skin, and won’t blink late, Dentmon fits the bill.
