Two-way Cincinnati guard with pro-level defensive instincts
McElroy’s calling card at Cincinnati was steady, all-around guard play: in the 2001-02 season he averaged 9.5 points, 5.3 rebounds, 2.6 assists and 0.8 steals per game while shooting 46.8% from the field, a profile that points to a tough, versatile contributor rather than a volume scorer.[1] He stood out as a high-minute, high-reliability piece who could help on the glass and defend across the perimeter, making him the kind of guard coaches trust for winning details and lineup balance.[1][2]
