Kansas State signs junior college guard Amaad Wainright

The 2017 recruiting cycle came to a close for Kansas State basketball on Tuesday when Amaad Wainright signed a financial aid agreement with the Wildcats.

Wainright, a 6-foot-4, 200-pound combo guard, will transfer to K-State from Trinity Valley Community College in Athens, Texas, where he averaged 14.2 points, 4.5 rebounds and 3.7 assists as a sophomore last season. He has two years of eligibility remaining.

The Wildcats gained an oral commitment from Wainright two weeks ago. K-State basketball coach Bruce Weber had two scholarships to recruit with after the season ended in March. He added Wainright and Makol Mawien, a redshirt freshman forward from New Mexico Junior College.
