Rim-Protection Upside in a 6-11 Creighton Center
Epperson’s value is built on size, touch, and shot blocking: at 6-11 and 235 pounds, he gives Creighton a true interior presence, and his career numbers show efficient finishing with strong block production relative to his minutes. In the 2020-21 season, he averaged 1.1 points, 1.4 rebounds, and 0.4 blocks in 16 games as a reserve, but his long-term appeal is more about his defensive length and inside-out skill than box-score volume. The biggest question for any team is availability and rhythm, since his college career has been limited by injuries and inconsistent playing time.
