Drake’s high-IQ, winning-obsessed guard who impacts the game without needing volume
Sturtz is the kind of guard coaches trust because he brings efficient scoring, rebounding from the backcourt, and relentless winning habits rather than flashy shot volume. In the 2022-23 season, he averaged 7.4 points, 5.8 rebounds and shot 65.2% from the field, while ESPN lists his career profile at 8.3 points, 5.5 rebounds and 58.5% shooting; Drake also notes he became a 1,000-point scorer and the program’s all-time winningest player with 120 victories. He fits teams that value toughness, consistency, and glue-guy production over pure shot creation.
