Wes Enis arrived at Creighton as a newcomer, but his reputation for relentless work ethic and vocal leadership already preceded him. The 6‑foot‑2 guard has spent countless hours in the gym, shaping a career that blends perimeter shooting with a growing willingness to attack the basket.
Over his first three college seasons he has drained 257 three‑point attempts, hitting them at a 37.5% rate. That consistency stems from a transformation that began in eighth grade when he switched his shooting hand from right to left, a change that opened new angles and forced defenses to adjust.
A versatile prospect
Coach Greg McDermott has repeatedly highlighted Enis’s competitiveness and leadership, calling them his "superpower." The guard’s vocal encouragement in practice and games has become a cornerstone of the team’s culture, especially for younger teammates seeking direction.
Beyond the arc, Enis is now focusing on an in‑between game that can complement his shooting. By adding mid‑range and post moves, he hopes to become a more unpredictable threat and to stretch defenses horizontally as well as vertically.
Eligibility rules now allow him to return for a fifth season, a path he plans to take after enrolling early and finishing his first year at the Division I level with an average of 16.4 points per game. His age aligns closely with most juniors, giving him a unique blend of experience and youthful energy.
The upcoming Big East schedule represents a new challenge. The conference is rated higher than the American Athletic Conference, and Enis sees it as the perfect stage to test his expanded skill set against elite competition.
