steady veteran floor general with proven Big East poise
In the 2023-24 season, Rose Nkumu gave Marquette exactly what winning teams crave from a veteran guard: stability, distribution, and timely production, averaging 7.3 points and 4.7 assists while starting all 32 games. She also flashed real tournament juice, earning Fort Myers Tip-Off MVP honors after posting 12.5 points, 5.5 assists, and 2.5 steals in two wins. Her calling card is command of the offense, toughness, and an ability to create for others while defending the ball; the knock is that she’s more connector than volume scorer. If your team wants experience and control, she fits the bill.
