The six-person senior class of 2018 will be remembered at Wichita State for maintaining the Shockers’ winning ways following the Fred VanVleet and Ron Baker era, and now they will all be playing professional basketball.
With the signings of Conner Frankamp (Bulgaria) and Rauno Nurger (Spain) on Tuesday, all six seniors have secured professional contracts for the upcoming season. Shaq Morris (Japan), Rashard Kelly (Russia), Zach Brown (France), and Darral Willis (Cyprus) all signed contracts earlier this summer.
Counting Landry Shamet, who left early for the NBA Draft and was selected No. 26 overall by the Philadelphia 76ers, the Shockers had seven professionals on the team last season that finished 25-8 and reached the program’s seventh straight NCAA Tournament.
