New K-State basketball coach Casey Alexander’s roster is nearly complete. The most positive thing I can say about it is that they have potential. I put together a table of the 13 players sorted by height, also listing their previous school, games started, and points and rebounds they averaged per game. So far, the roster consists of two high school players, one returning player, and the rest are transfers. Alexander has a roster limit of 15, so it is possible that he may add a couple more, but here is what we have so far….

Name	Position	Height	Previous School	2025-26 Games Started	2025-26 Points Per Game	2025-26 Rebounds Per Game	Star Ranking Out Of High School	Years of Eligibility
JT Rock	Center	7’1″	New Mexico	1	6.2	3.5	4*	2
Pape N’diaye	PF/C	7’0″	Xavier	0	2.0	2.3	3*	2
Matt Gilhool	PF/C	6’11”	LSU	Redshirt	0	0	4*	4
Brock Vice	PF	6’10”	Murray State	0	2.0	1.8	3*	2
Timotej Malovec	PF/W	6’8″	Miami	2	4.2	1.3	3*	2
Isaiah Abraham	Wing	6’7″	Georgetown	31	4.8	2.9	4*	2
Dezdrick Lindsay	Wing	6’6″	Oregon	8	5.3	2.8	0*	1
Andrej Kostic	SG	6’6″	K-State	0	5.2	1.7	4*	3
Jaden Schutt	SG	6’5″	Virginia Tech	5	7.7	1.6	4*	1
Devin Hutcherson	Wing	6’5″	High School	N/A	N/A	N/A	3*	4
Jaylen Alexander	PG	6’2″	High School	N/A	N/A	N/A	3*	4
Brandon Rechsteiner	SG	6’1″	Colorado State	34	12.0	2.2	4*	1
Montana Wheeler	PG	5’9″	Bradley	0	8.5	1.1	3*	3

There aren’t many “games started” among this group. I would guess that Abraham and Rechsteiner will start for K-State along with Kostic. I have no idea who else may start. There are six former four-star recruits here, but they lack the experience to evaluate how they may perform this fall. Regardless, I’m happy to see that many top-100ish recruits on the roster.

Alexander has a lot to work with and mold here, and I’m sure there will be plenty of growing pains. K-State fans will need a lot of patience because it will likely take this team a while to perform how we all want them to. It is bound to be another interesting season.
