Kennesaw State's Undrafted 6-3 Guard Brings Elite Intensity and Defensive Versatility
Delaney Heard, a 6-3, 209-pound guard from Canton, Georgia, emerged as Kennesaw State’s most intense two-way player after going undrafted in the 2025 NBA Draft. Standing out with a 50.0% field goal rate and 2.4 steals per game in the 2024-25 season, Heard differentiates himself through relentless defensive pressure, physicality in the paint despite his size, and a high-energy personality that elevates team morale. Though he missed time early in his college career due to a minor ankle injury, he returned with increased maturity and clutch scoring ability. His combination of guard speed, forward-like strength, and unselfish playmaking makes him a prime fit for teams needing a versatile, battle-tested contributor who thrives in transition and half-court defense.
