Samir Stewart gives Manhattan a steady backcourt scorer with shot-making upside
Stewart has been a useful guard for Manhattan, averaging 8.6 points and 2.3 assists with 35.4% shooting in the 2025-26 college season, and his profile points to a compact, score-first lead guard who can also handle secondary playmaking duties.[5] His best differentiator is shot creation from the perimeter: one outside scouting profile describes him as a “dead-eye marksman” who thrives in big moments, which fits a team that needs a confident late-clock shooter and someone comfortable taking pressure shots.[6]
