Malik Ware brings size, versatility, and a fresh-transfer edge to Averett’s frontcourt
Malik Ware is a 6-foot-5 forward for Averett who arrived as a transfer from Lees-McRae and appeared in 12 games as a freshman in the 2025-26 season, averaging 2.1 points per game. He looks like a developmental frontcourt piece with positional flexibility, and the early production suggests a player still finding his rhythm rather than a finished product. Why care? Because he has the frame and transfer background to grow into a useful two-way role player, especially if you value upside, toughness, and patience over immediate box-score splash.
