Chris Herren Jr. brings guard grit and a compelling backstory to San Diego
In his 2020-21 season at San Diego, Chris Herren Jr. played limited minutes but showed a steady, low-usage guard profile: 4 games, 1.7 points per game in his prior season at Boston College, and a career line that settled around 4.2 points, 1.7 rebounds, and 0.6 assists per game before he left basketball to pursue football. What makes him interesting is less the box score and more the package: a 6-foot-3 guard with decent size, experience at power-conference and WCC levels, and a reputation shaped by resilience, maturity, and toughness rather than flashy production.
