The Texas A&M men's basketball team bolstered its 2023-24 roster with the addition of graduate transfer Wildens Leveque, who has made 52 starts and seen action in 108 career games at South Carolina and UMass.

Playing for head coach Frank Martin at both schools, the 6-foot-10, 255-pound Leveque posted 546 points, 444 rebounds and 92 blocks in four seasons of action. A consistently strong offensive rebounder, 42.6 percent of his total rebounds have come off the offensive glass. He tallied his career highs in points and rebounds with 16 points vs. Kentucky and 11 rebounds vs. Western Kentucky, both in 2021-22.

"Wildens is a mature, experienced veteran," assistant coach Steve Roccaforte said. "He fits the Buzz Williams system perfectly. He cares about winning and his teammates first. He is a physical big who works hard and plays harder. He wants to help Texas A&M win at the highest level. We are very happy to have him. He is our type of guy."

While at South Carolina, Leveque helped the Gamecocks to a 4-0 mark against the Maroon & White while chipping in 16 points, 12 rebounds and four blocks.

At UMass in 2022-23, Leveque led the Minutemen with 33 blocks and was third on the team with 129 rebounds while starting 25 times in 28 games played. The Brockton, Massachusetts native, averaged 5.5 points and 4.6 rebounds for the season. He helped UMass win the Myrtle Beach Invitational crown while setting a tournament record with a career-high five blocks against the Colorado Buffaloes. He had a double-double with 11 points and 10 rebounds in a road win over South Florida and had a season-high 12 points against George Mason.
