A series on newcomers to the men's and women's basketball teams starts with additions to the men's teams.
 
Wichita State freshmen Jaden Seymour, Chaunce Jenkins and Ricky Council IV and junior Trevin Wade discuss movie and TV recommendations, which Shocker veterans are guiding them, favorite NBA players and passing time during the pandemic. 
 
Seymour on his favorite shows:
 
"I watch Anime, so I would say "Seven Deadly Sins" on Netflix. It's an interesting story line and you get attached to the characters."
 
Jenkins on the toughest defenders to face in practice:
 
"Definitely Dexter (Dennis). He's really long and athletic and it makes it hard to get by him. He's guarded some of the best players in the country. You can tell by the way he defends us."
 
Council on his NBA favorite:
 
"Nobody believes me, but I feel like the Nuggets are going to win it all. That's a big statement, but I like the way they play. I love the way they play together." 
 
Wade on playing one-on-one with brothers Trey and Antonio during the pandemic:
 
"We had a couple battles in the backyard. Competing with my brothers. It was a mixture of everybody – he would win some days and I would win another day."
