Player Profile
Selton Miguel is a strong, dynamic guard with a smooth offensive game and a defensive edge. Born in Angola and raised with international experience, Miguel brings a unique blend of physicality, finesse, and IQ to the backcourt. Offensively, he's a confident shot-maker who can create his own look, attack closeouts, and knock down threes with rhythm. He's particularly dangerous in isolation and mid-range situations, where his footwork and strength shine.On the defensive end, Miguel is tough, physical, and engaged—often drawing tough assignments and using his frame to disrupt opposing guards. He’s a two-way player with a natural feel for the game, capable of impacting winning without needing to dominate the ball.A product of Kansas State and later New Mexico State, Miguel has shown consistent growth, leadership, and poise in high-pressure moments. He’s the kind of player every coach wants—resilient, versatile, and always ready to compete.
