DYLAN CARDWELL NEWS

Starter for exhibition game Cardwell logged six points (2-4 FG, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, three assists and one block across his 19 minutes during Auburn's exhibition game Friday against Florida Atlantic.

Impact It appears that Cardwell will enter Auburn's 2024-25 season as its primary center. This comes after four seasons for the Tigers, all of their aforementioned campaigns including him having a regular role but never as a starter. Carter's primary asset is defense, having averaged more than a block in three of his undergraduate years and at least three rebounds in all of his undergrad seasons. Having more of a sample size to work with should help him amplify his output in rebounds and blocks.
