My Take

Garrett is the kind of grinder I always pull for: an undrafted point guard who clawed his way into NBA minutes through sheer persistence after a strong Iowa State career. At 6'4" with real playmaking instincts, he got cups of coffee with the Suns and Jazz, and there's a certain dignity in carving out a pro career across the G League and overseas when the NBA door keeps closing. Players like him remind you how thin the margin is between a rotation guard and a journeyman. He never got the spotlight, but his longevity and willingness to chase the game wherever it led earns my respect.
