WASHINGTON - GW men's basketball will have a fresh look for the 2026-27 campaign with 11 newcomers joining Head Coach Chris Caputo's program, as he enters his fifth season in Foggy Bottom.
"We are excited about the depth of this group and the diversity of skill," Caputo said. "One thing that stands out is the positional size of almost every player on the roster. We think that we have assembled a collection of serious-minded players who will play on both ends of the floor."
The collection of talent comes in a variety of forms from recent high school graduates to international athletes who will be making the transition to college basketball in the U.S. Below is the incoming class that will join returning senior Jean Aranguren, redshirt freshman Jalen Rougier-Roane and walk-on senior Amir Arrington.
