Cody Benzel brings veteran, floor-spacing guard play to Eastern Washington
Benzel is a steady, experience-heavy **guard** who has shown he can score in bursts and stretch defenses, with Eastern Washington listing him at **145 made threes in 101 career games** and ESPN showing **5.1 points per game** on **40.3% shooting** in the 2024-25 season. He stands out more as a smart, low-drama connector than a volume creator: his value is shot-making, rotation reliability, and veteran poise rather than high usage. If your team wants a guard who can help spacing and make the simple play, he fits; if you need a primary engine, that is not his lane. [5][7]
