Rashad Lewis brought veteran stability and playmaking to Mercer
In the 2017 season, Mercer guard Rashad Lewis was a compact, savvy floor general who contributed as a distributor and defender, finishing with 72 assists and 23 steals while appearing in all 32 games; he also averaged 2.8 points and 2.2 assists per game. Mercer’s own coverage and later coaching bio frame him as a senior leader with quickness, toughness, and a team-first edge, but his size (5-foot-8) and earlier injury absence are the main context points to weigh. He looks like a fit for a team that values hustle, ball pressure, and steady decision-making over pure scoring pop.
