Dent continued to lead the offense for the Gaels as their primary ball handler through their three game trip to the Bahamas at the Battle 4 Atlantis. The Wollongong, Australia native averaged 10.7 points per contest at the tournament to go along with three assists per game. In the Gaels tournament opener vs. Wichita State, Dent played all 40 minutes, and, with less than a minute to go down one, drove down the court and hit a floater in the lane that would prove to be the eventual game winning shot. He added 14 points and six assists in the Gaels win against Virginia Tech in the semifinals, before finishing out the tournament with an eight point effort on 3-6 shooting from the field in the championship game against Vanderbilt. Dent also went 14-15 from the stripe in the tournament, and, through nine games, leads the WCC with a 97.3% free throw clip.
