Summary:

Terrence Shannon Jr. is a very athletic swingman that can attack the basket to garner scores, and he also is a good defender that can get stops for his team.  After having an up and down season last year at Texas Tech, Shannon was able to string together a handful of strong performances to help Illinois get plenty of wins this past season.  Currently, Shannon projects to be a second round prospect for the 2024 draft.
