Jon'Tee Willhite gives Eastern Illinois a steady two-way guard with playmaking upside
Willhite’s appeal is his balanced, low-drama guard game: he averaged 6.1 points, 3.5 rebounds, and 2.7 assists in the 2025-26 season while shooting 36.6% from the field, and he has shown durability by appearing in all 30 games in a prior season with 15 starts. He looks like a connector who can handle the ball, rebound his position, and keep an offense organized rather than a high-volume scorer, which makes him a useful fit for teams that value poise, versatility, and effort over flash.
