6'7, 220 UNLV senior.. Put up good numbers when healthy - averaged a double-double in 17-18, and put up 10.8 and 8.8 in eight games this last season before a season-ending injury. Come to the Mesa, Shakur! Courtesy of a UNLV peep on the MGC forum:

He looks like a good get, but right off my mind, I can't recall any grad transfer that went to a school within the same conference

He only played a few games this season due to a knee injury. Last season he shot a high percentage in two point attempts and average 10 rebounds a game while playing 30 minutes a game.

He's a freaking beast, the numbers don't do him justice (even though they're not bad). If we could land him that'd be a HUGE get

He's one of the guys in the conference over the last few years that I wished was an Aztec. Agree...would be a huge get and immediately replace Jalen. Not sure how credible the source is, but it is student-run so seems like they'd be a good source (unless they are just trolling SDSU).

The one time UNLV has beaten us in the last 16(?) games, Juiston's line was 21 points, 11 rebounds, 5 assists, 4 steals on 10-13 shooting.

I really hope this is true. He is a beast. We could really use him.

Be great if this is true. I hope this isn't just a line someone is feeding the hopeful.

As far as affecting next year's team, I think he'd possibly make a bigger impact than Jaden or Hommes. The guy is strong as an ox and physical, and can also hit the midrange and rebound. Very athletic defender as well, and is way older than Jaden so he'd be more ready to make an immediate impact imo. I'd probably still rather have Jaden since he's a McDonald's AA and obviously a special talent who will go top 5 in the draft probably, but I wouldn't be upset whatsoever if we miss on Jaden and get Juiston instead. We need someone physical and versatile like that so badly. Like a more offensively skilled Josh Davis

I don't see how getting Shakur effects us on Jaden.
