Anthony Beane brings proven scoring pop and veteran shot-making for Southern Illinois
Beane was a high-volume, high-impact guard at Southern Illinois, finishing his Saluki career with 1,917 points and ranking third on the program’s all-time scoring list; in his final season he averaged 14.7 points and hit 39.4% from three, with a late surge of 21.4 points per game over his last 12 contests[4][12]. What makes him stand out is more than the box score: he was a two-time All-MVC scorer who could create offense in bunches, stayed efficient at the free-throw line, and returned from a significant ankle/leg injury with a cleared rehab timeline, signaling toughness and persistence[4][12].
