Houston’s microwave scorer and late-game shot creator
Rob Gray was a high-usage, bucket-getting guard for Houston, and in the 2017-18 season he led the Cougars and the American Athletic Conference with 19.3 points per game while also carrying Houston to a 27-8 record and a second-place AAC finish. He’s the kind of fit who changes game math: explosive off the dribble, fearless in crunch time, and proven on big stages, including a 39-point NCAA Tournament breakout. The knock is that his value is tied heavily to scoring, but if you need a tough, proven closer, he’s a real problem for defenses.
