Andre Owens 200cm/95kg, 1971
Team player, great in defense, athletic and physical, can play the 1/2/3. Too unselfish at times.Transferred from Lousiana State to Oklahoma State in college. When playing for LSU in 1993 he started 14 games at the point guard, 10 games at the shooting guard and 2 at the small forward spot which is an indication of how all round Owens game is. Will play all three positions,very quick feet,get him free often,excellent going to the hoop or from three.
