McCabe’s steady playmaking and veteran poise made him a true floor-general fit at UNLV
In the 2022-23 season, Jordan McCabe gave UNLV a reliable lead guard who could organize an offense, protect the ball, and create for others, while still chipping in 5.5 points per game on 36.8% shooting from the field and 39.3% from three.[1][6] His calling card was distribution: he led UNLV in assists in 2021-22 at 4.8 per game, ranked third in the Mountain West, and posted the league’s best assist-to-turnover ratio (3.4), which is exactly the kind of calm, high-IQ connector coaches love.[1] Not the flashiest scorer, but a smart, steady table-setter with veteran toughness and deceptive craft—very much the “make everyone else better” guard.
