Chris Mubiru gives Northwestern State a big-guard shot-maker with international juice
In the 2025-26 season, Chris Mubiru is a 6-foot-5 junior guard for Northwestern State who brings size, perimeter scoring, and useful versatility to the backcourt. He showed real growth after an injury-hit stretch early in his college career, and his breakout moments included a 17-point game in the 2023-24 season and a steady scoring role in 2024-25, when he averaged 7.9 points, 3.2 rebounds, and 2.2 assists per game. What makes him intriguing is the two-way toolkit: he can space the floor, handle some creation, and he also earned the right to represent Uganda at FIBA AfroBasket, a nice sign of competitiveness and upside.
