Long Beach State’s old-school glue guy with track-star bounce
Quentin Shropshire is a 6-foot-6 forward whose value comes from versatility, effort, and athleticism rather than headline-scoring volume. At Long Beach State, he was a walk-on who earned minutes with energy plays, rebounding, defense, and timely contributions; in the 2016-17 season, he scored 11 points and grabbed 18 rebounds in 12 games while helping spark a comeback win at Cal Poly. His track-and-field background shows up in his vertical pop and motor, making him a useful culture fit for teams that want toughness, hustle, and low-maintenance production.
