Tomas Thrastarson is one of three Washington State Cougars to say they plan on returning.

The 6 -foot-6 guard has averaged 4.3 points and 3 rebounds on 56% shooting, including 41% from deep on about one attempt per game.

Head coach David Riley likes how he crashed the glass late in the game to get the dirty work done.

The Cougars will be losing a lot this offseason, including Isaiah Watts and LeJuan Watts .

Thrastarson had 19 blocks, including as many as three in a loss to Washington .

He's shown sharp timing to make those, jumping at just the right time to swat away shots at the rim.

He may not be an entirely willing shooter, but he’s a capable one.

With 20 minutes per game in 30 contests, he did well to show why he's worth keeping around.
