a durable, high-IQ forward whose best work came at Missouri S&T before becoming a Lobos role piece
Michael Nesbitt’s calling card is size, steadiness, and versatility: at 6-foot-7, he brought a forward’s frame, rebounding juice, and enough touch to average 9.6 points and 5.2 rebounds in the 2014-15 season at Missouri S&T, then gave New Mexico a veteran presence in 2015-16. His Lobos stint was short on volume but long on utility, and his path also signals strong academics and maturity—he earned three Academic All-GLVC honors and later moved into coaching, which hints at IQ, work habits, and team-first value. If you want rugged frontcourt reliability, he’s your kind of guy.
