DePaul Walk-On Pantelis Xidias is a National Treasure

Pantelis Xidias is quickly becoming a household name within the world of college basketball. DePaul's walk-on sophomore guard has yet to log a single minute this season, but he's already perhaps one of the Blue Demons’ stars.
Xidias has exploded onto the scene because of his epic bench celebrations. The 5'10", 165-pounder, donning rec-specs, can be seen dancing with his blonde hair flopping around.
Dunk: 🔥

His passion isn't only reserved for games. If you need any convincing to go attend a DePaul home basketball game, let Xidias explain why.
