Damarcus Croaker (6’2″ 190lbs, #5 Guard)
Highlights of Damarcus Croaker:
Outlook:
As you can see, the highlight reel for Croaker is all from his high school days – that’s because he didn’t play very much this past season. Croaker only averaged 9.5 minutes/game but showed some flashes of his potential in his limited time.
It’s difficult to say what fans can expect from Croaker. Given the void left by Martez Walker, Croaker will get more playing time but will he be more efficient with his time and score more points? If he doesn’t score more points, he has to create scoring opportunities by obtaining more rebounds, steals and assists.
With Walker off the team, Demarcus Holland will likely earn the starting job. Croaker and Kendal Yancy should split the substitute guard minutes.
With the Longhorns already having two guards signed for the 2015 class, it might be in anticipation of a potential transfer. Croaker has plenty of talent but being away from his child in Florida makes him a transfer candidate.
