Northwestern’s steady floor general with veteran poise
Drayton is the kind of guard coaches love: a veteran ballhandler who grew into Northwestern’s on-court organizer, averaging 33.4 minutes per game and leading the Wildcats with 101 assists in the 2001-02 season while adding 5.4 points and 3.7 rebounds per game. He’s valued less for flash than for control, toughness, and feel—he went from a limited freshman role to the team’s coach-on-the-court type, which says a lot about his competitiveness and basketball IQ. If your team wants a reliable lead guard who keeps the offense humming, he fits the bill.
