Vermont’s Steady, High-Intensity Guard Who Delivers When It Counts
Shamir Bogues, a 6'4" guard for the Vermont Catamounts, is a reliable two-way performer who started 28 of 29 games in his first Vermont season (2024-25), averaging 11.3 points, 5.2 rebounds, 2.6 assists, and 1.9 steals [3]. His career averages sit at 9.3 PPG, 4.0 RPG, and 2.1 APG with a strong 49.1% field-goal rate, showcasing efficient scoring despite a modest 28.3% three-point mark [2][5]. Bogues differentiates himself with elite intensity, defensive hustle (1.6–1.9 steals/game), and clutch execution—like his go-ahead three in Vermont’s 55-49 win over Maine [1][6]. An America East First-Team selection, he’s known for relentless energy and leadership, though his outside shooting remains a development area [6]. With no major injury history reported and a graduate status in 2025, he’s a high-fit guard for teams needing a tough, versatile defender who can score in the paint and create off the dribble [2][10].
