Second-year freshman Jamari Sibley hitting stride for UTEP basketball team

UTEP forward Jamari Sibley doesn't fit neatly into a box.

On the floor he's a versatile player, as much a swing player as a forward, who can play inside or out. The transfer from Georgetown, a second-year COVID freshman, is at his fourth school in the last four years, including a year of prep school in Virginia.

Sibley spends his off time as a painter.

"I had to pick up a hobby," Sibley said. "Basketball players can act too cool to step outside the box and do something new. I decided to pick up a hobby to clear my mind.
