Averaging 21.7 points per contest, Luguentz Dort is quickly establishing himself as one of the Pac-12’s premier guards. A compact but powerful athlete at 6-foot-6, Dort plays bigger than his size on both ends. He’s one of the quickest risers in the 2019 class.

While not an elite shooter, Dort has proven himself capable at all three levels. He’s a viable pull-up threat and is hitting 33.3 percent of his threes, but the freshman is at his best when slashing to the rim. Using strength and deft touch, Dort welcomes contact and finishes at a high clip inside.

On the defensive end, Dort is an aggressive on-ball defender who flashes excellent anticipation. He also attacks the glass exceedingly well for his position, often turning rebounds into fastbreak opportunities.
