Rakim Chaney is a freshman guard and one of Valparaiso's most reliable scorers at 10.3 points per game.
Rakim Chaney is a freshman guard from Rockford, Illinois, who arrived at Valparaiso after graduating from Auburn High School and spending a post-graduate year at 212 Sports Academy in Sarasota, Florida, where he averaged 25 points, seven rebounds, and five assists per game and was named the Florida Sun Basketball League Player of the Year. Basketball runs deep in his family — his father Bo played at the junior college level, both grandfathers have been involved coaching high school basketball in the Chicagoland area, and his brother Rob played at Clarke University. Chaney has been one of the most impactful freshmen in the Missouri Valley Conference in 2025-26, earning MVC Freshman of the Week honors twice in back-to-back weeks. He scored a game-high 24 points against Nicholls on opening weekend, becoming the first Valpo freshman with at least 24 points, eight made field goals, and four made threes since Alec Peters in 2013. He leads the Beacons in scoring at 10.3 points per game.
