Lafayette’s steady, high-IQ floor general with a scorer’s edge
In the 2016-17 season, Nick Lindner was Lafayette’s lone captain, second on the team in scoring at 13.4 points per game, and he finished as the first player in program history with 1,500+ points and 500+ assists—elite point-guard stuff[2][11]. His calling card is playmaking plus poise: he led Lafayette freshmen in assists early in his career, later became just the sixth Patriot League player to reach 500 assists, and earned praise for being excellent in transition and creating quality shots for teammates[2][4][15]. If you want a smart, competitive guard who can run the offense, shoot, and lead, he fits the bill[2][11].
