Carter Holmes brings veteran guard grit and steadying floor presence
In the 2015 season, Carter Holmes was a 6-foot, 185-pound guard from Jackson Academy who played a limited role at Mississippi State while battling a preseason knee injury, which matters because his value isn’t box-score flash so much as resilience, poise, and backcourt stability. His high school production hinted at a well-rounded game, and the appeal here is a tough, local guard who can organize, compete, and give a team dependable minutes when healthy.
