South Dakota State’s 6-7 forward is a seasoned, high-IQ glue guy with grit
Dykman’s profile is built on size, versatility, and persistence: the 6-foot-7 forward from Fremont, Nebraska redshirted at South Dakota State, then returned to college basketball after a long, winding journey and brought mature, team-first toughness with him. In his SDSU stint, he was a low-usage role player rather than a volume stat producer, which makes him more of a fit question than a box-score headline—think reliability, positional length, and coachability over flash. If you want a steady frontcourt piece with a blue-collar edge, he checks that box.
