Trent Buttrick

Trent Buttrick obviously has his limitations, but he was playing completely out of position all year due to PSU’s front court roster deficiencies.

Buttrick has a decent outside shot, and is capable of a nice block or two there defensively. He may not have a ton of high major conference offers if he’s looking for significant playing time, but he fits a role on almost any team.

VBR Crystal Ball Bucknell Bison; Buttrick’s from Bloomsburg, just right up Rt. 80 from Bucknell.  Buttrick is taller than most Patriot League small forwards and quicker than most power forward.  He’d be something of a mismatch on the wing and would probably average close to double figures for the mighty Bison.  5.5/10 liklihood
