Texas Tech basketball All-Decade Team: The shooting guards

Honorable mention

One player that likely would have made this list had he completed his career at Tech would have been Dusty Hannahs.  The Arkansas native averaged 11.5 points per game in his career but his best years were after he transferred from Tech to Arkansas.  As a Red Raider, he averaged 7.3 points per game from 2012-14.

JUCO transfer Devaugntah Williams was solid from 2014-16 averaging 10.6 points per game.  As a senior, he scored in double-digits 18 times, including 18 points in Tech’s first-round loss to Butler in the NCAA Tournament, the program’s first trip to The Big Dance in nine years.

Niem Stevenson was another JUCO shooting guard who contributed significantly during his time as a Red Raider.  From 2016-18 he averaged 8.0 points per game and was essentially the sixth man for Chris Beard dring the 2018 run to the Elite Eight.

Of course, we won’t soon forget Brandone Francis.  A transfer from Florida, the former 4-star recruit played two seasons in Lubbock and became a fan favorite.

Averaging 5.8 p.p.g. as a Red Raider from 2017-19, he will forever be remembered for his fantastic performance in the National Title Game.  In his final appearance as a Red Raider, the Dominican Republic native tied his career-high with 17 points to lead his team in scoring on the biggest of stages.
