a high-usage, playmaking guard who can take over a game
In the 2001-02 season, Marlon Parmer was New Mexico’s do-everything backcourt engine, averaging 12.8 points, 5.4 rebounds, and 5.4 assists in 30.9 minutes per game, with the assist and rebound numbers standing out for a guard[1][2][3]. He was a left-handed creator who could generate offense in bursts—he scored a career-high 30 points against Gonzaga and had multiple late-game takeover moments—but his efficiency was more mixed, especially from the free-throw line and beyond the arc[7][3]. If you want a guard who brings pace, ball pressure, and real secondary rebounding, he’s your kind of guy; if you need pure shooting polish, that’s the swing skill[2][3].
