Versatile Southern Illinois guard who can score, defend, and stretch the floor
In his Southern Illinois stint, Eric McGill showed the profile of a physical, multi-tool guard: he played off the bench in 10 games, averaged 5.0 points, and hit 35.7% from three before a left-hand ligament injury interrupted his run[1]. Earlier in his career, he flashed much bigger playmaking-and-pressure numbers, including 20 points, 6 assists, and 2.5 steals per game as a senior in high school, with 41% three-point shooting[3]. He looks like a fit for teams that value toughness, defensive activity, and perimeter shooting over pure usage[1][3].
