Texas’ one-year tone-setter with NBA-level edge
In the 2000-01 season, Maurice Evans was a do-it-all Texas wing who led the Longhorns in scoring (15.6 ppg), steals (44), and three-point shooting at 38.9%, while starting all 34 games and adding 5.3 rebounds per game. He wasn’t just productive — he was versatile, athletic, and disruptive, with a reputation as an outstanding swingman and offensive rebounder. The appeal is easy to see: he brings two-way pop, toughness, and shot-making, though his Texas run was brief because he turned pro after that season.
