Whorton is a 6-foot-8 forward from Milwaukee, who spent the past two seasons with the Jackrabbits. He redshirted in 2023-24 and played sparingly in 2024-25, averaging 9.3 minutes per game in 21 games − two starts. Whorton averaged 3.0 points and 2.9 rebounds per game. He also blocked five shots. The addition is a welcome one for Hardaway from a depth perspective. The Tigers have loaded up on guards and wings (11 total so far), while signing just one player taller than 6-8 (Aaron Bradshaw).
