Low-usage guard still trying to carve out a rotation role at UMBC
Varghese has been a deep-bench guard for UMBC, appearing in 5 games in the 2024-25 season and averaging 2.6 minutes, 0.6 points, 0.4 rebounds, and 0.6 steals per game. He has flashed a small but useful defensive edge and limited perimeter touch—his only made three came on 1-of-2 shooting from deep—which suggests he can provide energy in short bursts. The big question for a team is upside versus role: right now he looks like a developmental depth piece rather than an impact rotation guard.[1][2][3][5]
