Illinois forward Cameron Liss brings size, smarts, and steady low-usage value
Cameron Liss is a 6-foot-6, 220-pound Illinois forward from Northbrook who earned a spot on the roster as a preferred walk-on and was known for elite academics, including a 3.99 GPA in accountancy in the 2017-18 season. His on-court profile is modest in the stats, but that’s the point: he gave Illinois depth, discipline, and coachability, with a team-first approach that fits a chemistry-driven roster. If your team wants a high-IQ, low-drama glue guy who competes, understands role acceptance, and raises the culture without needing touches, he’s exactly that type.
