Texas State’s high-IQ, veteran guard with captain’s intangibles
In the 2012-13 season, Justin Tanton gave Texas State a low-usage, steady backcourt presence, posting 0.8 points and 0.3 rebounds per game while shooting 33.3% from the field and 100% at the line across 4 games[1][6]. What makes him interesting goes beyond the box score: he was a senior guard, a team captain, and an academic honor-roll player, which points to leadership, reliability, and coachability[10][13]. He looks like a fit for teams valuing culture, work ethic, and steady locker-room glue more than flashy scoring[13].
