the old-school bucket-getter who carried UMass with scoring punch
In the 2010-11 season, Anthony Gurley was the No. 3 scorer in the A-10 and 45th in the NCAA at 18.7 points per game for Massachusetts, while also adding 4.4 rebounds per game. He was a high-volume shot-maker who could score from multiple levels, with a track record of stepping up in big moments and leading UMass in scoring in 23 of 30 games. The real appeal: he brought toughness, veteran edge, and proven production, not just empty points. If a team needed a guard who can create his own offense and handle pressure, Gurley was absolutely a fit.
