veteran Hokies guard with toughness and leadership
Shawn Harris was a 6'4" Virginia Tech guard whose value went beyond modest box-score output in the 2005-06 season, when he posted 3.4 points, 1.2 rebounds, 0.4 assists, and shot 39.2% from the field over his Hokies career[1][4][9]. The differentiator here is intangibles: Virginia Tech described him as a captain with “tremendous leadership skills,” toughness, competitive spirit, and a role that could flex as needed, while his early college career was also marked by a foot injury that cost him games[13][2]. If a team wants a steady, mature backcourt presence rather than a pure scorer, Harris fits the gritty, glue-guy mold[13].
