Tough combo guard was leading scorer for La Salle in each of the last two seasons… Totaled nearly 1,200 points in three seasons for the Explorers.
Steve Lutz on Brantley:
"Khalil gives us another veteran playmaker for our backcourt. He's not only a talented scorer and distributor but also a tough, hard-nosed defender who isn't afraid to get in there and fight for rebounds. I've enjoyed getting to know him and his family and look forward to welcoming them to ours."
