4 Creighton alumni appear on NBA rosters for the 2026-27 season, each landing with a different team. The group skews young, with the oldest member, Baylor Scheierman, just 26 years old and the youngest, Josh Dix, at 22.

Guards dominate the list — 3 of the 4 players line up at that position — with Ryan Kalkbrenner providing the lone frontcourt presence at center. All 4 were born in the United States, each in a different state.

A Group Spread Across Four Teams

No two Creighton alumni share a roster this season. Scheierman is with the Boston Celtics wearing #55, Dix suits up for the Oklahoma City Thunder at #21, Kalkbrenner plays for the Charlotte Hornets at #11, and Trey Alexander wears #15 for the Utah Jazz. That kind of spread across the league is a reasonable sign of a program that produces rotation-level NBA talent.

Heights and Birthplaces Worth Noting

The range in size is notable. Kalkbrenner stands at 7'1", making him the tallest of the group by a clear margin, while Dix and Alexander both come in at 6'5". Scheierman sits at 6'6" in between. Birthplaces are spread across the Midwest and South: Aurora, NE; Council Bluffs, IA; Florissant, MO; and Oklahoma City, OK — one player born in each state.

Ages Across the Current Roster

At 22, Josh Dix is the youngest Creighton alumnus in the league this season, born June 29, 2004. Baylor Scheierman, born September 26, 2000, is the oldest at 26. Ryan Kalkbrenner (24) and Trey Alexander (23) fill out the middle, making this a notably young group overall.
