Mikal Dawson brings veteran shot-making and hustle to Marshall’s backcourt
In the 2024-25 season, Mikal Dawson averaged 12.6 points, 4.1 rebounds, 1.4 assists, and 1.1 steals per game for Marshall while shooting 39.6% from the field, 35.9% from three, and 83.6% at the line[6][12]. The 6-5 senior guard is a high-minute, high-usage wing who spaces the floor with real shooting gravity, rebounds above his position, and adds active defense without needing the ball to be effective[6][13]. He looks like the kind of mature, plug-and-play guard who helps a team right away: reliable, tough, and better than the box score suggests when the game gets chippy.
