Zach Hicks

Zach Hicks is a basketball player who transferred to Penn State after two years at Temple. He is known for his shooting ability and NBA wing size. During his time at Temple, he was recognized as one of the better under the radar prospects in the AAC. Hicks has a career 36% 3-point mark (388 attempts) and led Temple with 141 made triples. He is primarily an off-ball shooter whose shots are either created by others, his own off-ball movement or closeout attacks. While he excels as a spot up and catch-and-shoot player, he isn't as effective when it comes to self creation off the bounce. Hicks has shown some versatility as a movement shooter and has proven to be an off-ball shooter whose shots are either created by others, his own off-ball movement or closeout attacks. He is expected to be a potential second-round pick in the 2024 NBA Draft. With more development and a big season with Penn State, he could end up being a great NBA role player.
