Reese Dixon-Waters – Guard – 6’5 – University of Southern California

Reese Dixon-Waters is a more experienced shot maker that could start or come off the bench and make a huge impact for the Cardinals next season.

The three-year veteran saw his role increase each year at USC, and, after a successful junior campaign that saw him win a postseason accolade, he announced his intent to leave the Trojans.

Louisville was early to reach out to Dixon-Waters, but recent news has him with no scheduled visits to the Cardinals, while he’s meeting in person with other coaches.

Dixon-Waters would be a great 2-guard for the Cards to add. He could start or come off the bench and play as a spark plug. It seems Dixon-Waters is more interested in other teams, though.
