Clayton will be a sophomore next season and projects to start at the point guard position for the Wildcats next season. He was a three-star recruit in 2023 and did not receive significant playing time last season due to Boo Buie, Ty Berry, and Ryan Langborg consuming all of the minutes in the backcourt last season.
Clayton is given an opportunity here to become the team’s starting point guard, but due to his inexperience, he ranks last amongst Big Ten point guards.
