The Complete Profile of Greg Mortimer: A Journey of Development, Lethal Perimeter Play, and High-IQ Leadership
As a vital teammate to Tim Quarterman, Greg Mortimer forged a distinguished basketball journey rooted in steady progression, scoring instincts, and unselfish play. From his early developmental years in Savannah to becoming an integral backcourt piece for South Carolina State University (SCSU), Mortimer proved himself to be a consummate professional-minded guard. [1]
High School Career: The Structural Rise
Freshman Year at Calvary Day School (2009–2010)
Mortimer began his high school journey at Calvary Day School in Savannah, Georgia. Entering the varsity program as a 6-foot-3 freshman under Head Coach Shells, Mortimer was a raw but promising shooting guard. [1, 2, 3, 4]
Playing Style: At Calvary Day, he was primarily used as an off-ball floor spacer. His role revolved around basic catch-and-shoot assignments and developing a fundamental defensive baseline.
Demeanor: Quiet and analytical, Mortimer utilized his freshman year to master his positional requirements. He embraced a learning role behind older upperclassmen. [2]
Transition to Sol C. Johnson High School (2010–2013)
To further elevate his competition, Mortimer transferred to Sol C. Johnson High School, joining a powerhouse backcourt that featured future NBA guard Tim Quarterman. [5]
The Senior Breakthrough (2012–13): Mortimer’s development hit its peak during his senior season, where he was ranked as a top-160 player in the state of Georgia. Over 30 games, Mortimer averaged 10.3 points, 0.9 rebounds, and 0.5 steals per game, hitting 120 field goals to spearhead the atom smashers’ deep offense.
State Championship Glory: Alongside Quarterman, Mortimer's perimeter scoring and defensive hustle helped secure the Georgia Class AAA State Championship title. His multi-year high school trajectory earned him a three-star evaluation and a formal signing with SCSU. [6, 7, 8]
College Career: South Carolina State Bulldogs (2013–2017)
Mortimer took his talents to the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference (MEAC) to suit up for the South Carolina State Bulldogs. Across his four-year collegiate career, he evolved into a premier perimeter scoring threat. [9]

Year-by-Year Career Numbers
Mortimer showcased highly efficient production over his collegiate timeline: [10]
Freshman & Sophomore Years (2013–2015): Utilized as an aggressive spark plug guard off the bench. He adjusted quickly to the physical demands of Division I basketball, using his size to disrupt opposing backcourts.
Junior Season (2015–16): Stepped into a heavier rotational role, solidifying his reputation as a defensive anchor and secondary playmaker.
Senior Season Peak (2016–17): Mortimer saved his best basketball for last, logging career highs across the board with 10.8 points, 2.4 rebounds, 2.2 assists, and 0.6 steals per game. [11, 12, 13]

Playing Style and Demeanor: The Ultimate Complementary Guard
The Clean Shooting Stroke: At SCSU Athletics, Mortimer’s signature weapon was his catch-and-shoot discipline. He possessed an elevated release point that allowed him to get shots off over contesting perimeter defenders.
Off-Ball Intelligence: Unlike ball-dominant guards, Mortimer excelled at moving without the baseball. He used pin-down screens and baseline cuts effectively, which opened up spacing lanes for his teammates.
Stoic Lead-by-Example Leadership: Mortimer’s demeanor was famously low-maintenance. He rarely forced bad shots or played outside of the offensive system. Coaches repeatedly lauded him as a stabilizing force in the locker room—a mature player who took assignments with absolute focus and minimal fanfare.
