From ACU Star Big Man to Wildcats Assistant Coach
Duran Porter, the 6-8, 240-lb center from Macon, GA, peaked as a senior for Abilene Christian in the 2015-16 season, averaging a career-best 8.3 points and 3.7 rebounds while earning the program's top student-athlete honor; his career NCAA stats show 6.1 PPG, 3.0 RPG, and a stellar 55.4% FG efficiency. A gritty, physical presence with prior JUCO polish from Tallahassee CC (5.0 PPG, 64.7% FG in 2013-14), he's now transitioned seamlessly into coaching the ACU Wildcats men's basketball staff—bringing insider knowledge, leadership, and rebounding tenacity that make him a perfect fit for programs building tough, fundamentals-driven frontcourts.
