This past season, Venters led the Eagles in scoring at 15.3 points per game while also averaging 2.8 rebounds, 1.5 assists, 0.8 steals and shooting 37% from 3-point range. For his career, the 6-foot-7 Venters has shot 40% from 3-point range and averaged 13.5 points per game in 84 career appearances (67 starts).

With that type of shooting and scoring profile, Venters would be a  welcome addition to any number of programs.
