Donovan Atwell Returns to Lead Texas Tech | Texas Tech Basketball News

Donovan Atwell is returning to Texas Tech for his fifth year—and he’s bringing records, swagger, and serious scoring firepower with him. After setting new marks for three-pointers in a season (both school and Big 12 records), he led the Red Raiders to their third straight NCAA Tournament. With 341 threes over four seasons at a 41.5% clip, he’s a stat-stuffing force averaging over 10 points per game while also contributing rebounds, steals, and assists. Even after shining in the NBA Summer League with Chicago—scoring 22 against Cleveland on 6-of-7 shooting from deep—he chose Lubbock. He started every game last season, dropped a career-high 26 vs. Kansas State, and hit seven threes on the road against Baylor. With 25 of 34 games in double figures, he’s a consistent offensive engine. Back for his fifth year as one of five key returnees, Atwell is central to Coach McCasland’s blueprint for building something special in Lubbock.
