The 6-foot-5 freshman led Furman in points (17.7) and assists (4.7) across 34 starts behind a 45.8/32.1/83.5 shooting line. The Paladins finished the regular season with a 22-12 (10-8) record, and they will need to lean on Wilkins if they expect to get out of the first round of the NCAA Tournament.
