Matt Borton brings veteran guard size, steady play, and academic polish to Idaho
In the 2012-13 season, Idaho guard Matt Borton was a 6-5, 195-pound backcourt piece who gave the Vandals size, ball movement, and a dependable spot-up threat, finishing with 2.2 points, 1.7 rebounds, and 0.7 assists per game while shooting 36.1% from the field.[3][8] His best differentiators were his versatility for a guard, willingness to battle through knee issues, and a reputation as a repeat academic honoree—useful traits for a coach looking for a smart, low-drama glue guy rather than a high-usage scorer.[2][9]
