Skylar Wicks Season 2024-25

Prior to UTSA
A hybrid wing, big-time athlete and scorer above the rim, hailing from Jersey City, N.J., Wicks graduated high school in Clearwater, Fla., where he led Surge Christian Academy to a 20-11 record as a senior and averaged 15.8 points, 5.9 rebounds and 4.4 assists. Proving difficult to shut down in transition as a strong finisher, Wicks most recently played across San Antonio at Incarnate Word (UIW) during the 2023-24 season, pacing the Cardinals with team highs of 13.7 ppg and 1.8 assists per outing. In UTSA’s meeting with UIW last November, Wicks manifested a double-double of 24 points and 11 rebounds, along with five assists and four steals. An active four-position defender and elite rebounder on both ends, he averaged 6.6 boards last season, along with a team-best 26 steals. After seeing limited rookie minutes at Missouri State, Wicks earned First Team All-Suncoast Conference honors leading State College of Florida with 16.5 points, 5.6 rebounds and 2.9 assists, while shooting 39.7 percent from deep and knocking down 58 threes. He scored in double-figures 23 times that season, highlighted by a 43-point performance in the win over Gulf Coast State College. Before UIW, he was named a top-50 Junior College player by JUCOrecruiting.com in 2023.
