Pickens Says:
“Stanford is a great university, one of the best in the world. It’s also a basketball program that I would love to be a part of. I’m extremely excited about next year and representing such a great university. There is also a great benefit in that I will be close to home, so I’m really looking forward to representing the West Coast as well.”

Coach Dawkins Says:
“We have recruited Dorian for quite some time. I think everybody likes to label him as a shooter, and he is indeed that. However, we really appreciate his complete game and especially his basketball IQ. He really knows how to play and can be trusted making the right play for both himself and his teammates. We are excited that Dorian became the final addition for this class and fortunate that we will have the opportunity to coach him.”
