Will Sheehey
Will Sheehey (born January 16, 1992) is a junior basketball player at Indiana University. As a player Sheehey was known for his length, athleticism, and slashing style. He played the role of enforcer for the Hoosiers with "a bit of chipiness" in his game. He also had an ability to hit the pull-up mid-range jump shot on the break — one with distinct form and springy athleticism.
