Prospect Profile
Although an undersized guard, House has proven to be incredibly impactful. Just last season, he notched a 10.3 BPM, which was just goes to show how much he brings to the table in terms of winning.
Set to play in his fifth college season, House spent his first two years at Arizona State and the last two at New Mexico. A flashy scoring point guard, he averaged roughly 17 points per game in each of the past two seasons, but got much more efficient in his most recent campaign. The New Mexico guard has a fantastic handle and can score from all over the court.
House is an improved 3-point shooter, but needs to show more consistency. He shot 39% in 2020-21 season on lower volume (2.8 attempts per game) then saw the efficiency drop off in 2021-22 season, converting on just 31.8% of his 4.8 attempts. Last season, he maintained the volume (4.7 attempts) while also shooting 37.7% from deep.
Again, he’s known for being a scorer, but House can also set up teammates. After he produced just 1.3 assists per game in his first two seasons, he’s notched 4.6 per contest in the most recent two. House is also smart and takes care of the ball, notching a solid assist-to-turnover radio while having a 27.1% assist rate last season.
Defensively, House gives full effort and has a ton of quickness which makes him a pesky defender. He produced 86 total steals last season, which was more than 2.5 per contest. He also blocked 20 shots, which is impressive for his position and height. With that in mind, he could struggle with the bigger, more physical guards at next level.
A former four-star recruit, House has tested draft waters in the past. The son of former NBA player Eddie House, he has the pedigree of a professional. House will just need to continue to prove he’s a well-rounded player that is effective on both ends of the floor this season ahead of making the potential leap to the league in the 2024 NBA Draft.
