Northeastern’s compact, steady backcourt spark
Rubens Amedee brings quickness, ball security, and sneaky efficiency as a Northeastern guard; in the 2000-01 season, he was a 5-foot-8 freshman who played in 19 games and produced modest all-around numbers, but his size-defying toughness and pace-making style made him a useful rotation piece. He stands out more for control, competitiveness, and fit than gaudy counting stats, which is exactly the kind of guard that can quietly stabilize a lineup.
