UTRGV's Steady-Handed Pass-First Guard
J.J. Thompson, the UT Rio Grande Valley Vaqueros guard, delivers reliable production with career NCAA averages of 6.7 PPG, 1.7 RPG, and a standout 3.2 APG at 39.0% FG (per ESPN and RealGM data), ranking him among top assist leaders in his high school district (3.0 APG, MaxPreps). His playmaking prowess and combo guard versatility—evident from leading Greenhill to its first SPC title in 25+ years—make him a low-turnover floor general with high basketball IQ, perfect for teams needing a selfless facilitator who elevates teammates without demanding the spotlight.
