Hickman got the start ahead of Chattanooga transfer and Southern Player of the Year Malachi Smith. Hickman also played 26 minutes, which was more than Smith's 17 points. Hickman had a decent freshman season that saw him average 5.1 points, 1.5 rebounds, 1.3 assists, and 0.8 three-pointers in 17.2 minutes per contest.
