Michael Perez gives Nevada a steady, two-way starting guard with proven scoring touch
Perez profiles as a dependable **starting guard** for Nevada, with past production that shows he can score, handle the ball, and contribute defensively; Nevada listed him as its top returning scorer at **11.5 points per game** and expected starter at shooting guard after he started all 32 games in the prior season.[7] ESPN’s current player page shows he averaged **7.8 points, 2.6 rebounds, and 2.0 assists** over 30 games, while his shooting efficiency dipped, so his value is tied more to versatility, toughness, and lineup stability than elite shot-making.[1]
