Quaran McPherson brings efficient two-way wing production to UAB
McPherson is a 6-foot-4 guard who showed real offensive versatility at Northern Illinois in the 2024-25 season, averaging 12.1 points and 5.0 rebounds while shooting 45.5% from the field and 39% from three, with four 20-point games and three double-doubles. His best fit is as a physical, multi-level scorer who can rebound his position and create value without needing heavy volume. The main question is consistency and role translation, since his minutes and starting role at UAB were limited in 2025-26, but his size, shot-making, and rebounding give him clear upside as a reliable rotation piece.[2][9][7]
