Reliable, team-first guard with size and toughness
Whitens is a versatile, high-IQ guard who brings size, rebounding, and steady two-way effort more than eye-popping scoring; ESPN lists him at 3.2 points, 2.7 rebounds, and 0.9 assists per game, with efficient shooting at 47.8% in his Michigan State career.[4][8] His value is in the details—he plays with a walk-on mentality, has earned respect in the program, and offers a dependable, physical presence that can fit a team needing composure, versatility, and a connector rather than a usage-heavy creator.[1][6]
