Freshman guard with a playmaking-first profile at Puget Sound
Asher Abeles-Tierney enters Puget Sound as a point guard/lead guard prospect whose value is more about ball-handling, decision-making and backcourt organization than box-score volume; ESPN lists him at guard for the 2025-26 season, while his St. Luke’s prep résumé shows he averaged 1.9 assists and 0.8 steals per game in 19 games as a high-school senior. [1][4][5] He looks like a fit for a team that wants a steady connector who can defend the ball and keep an offense organized, though his early college sample is extremely small, so the main question is how quickly that skill set translates to college speed and physicality.
