a compact, high-IQ guard who brought juice and playmaking to UC Davis
Arell Hennings is best known as a skilled, winning-minded guard who arrived at UC Davis after starring at Cochise College, where he averaged 16.3 points and 6.5 assists and earned NJCAA All-American honors in the 2016 season. At UC Davis in the 2017-18 season, he was a steady backcourt piece rather than a volume scorer, appearing in 33 games and giving the Aggies ball control, toughness, and veteran poise. The fit question is simple: if you want a smart, competitive guard who elevates structure and culture, he’s your guy; if you need a huge scorer, he’s more connector than engine.
