LARAMIE – Mr. Fix It.
 
That's the nickname Wyoming head coach Sundance Wicks bestowed Nasir "Naz" Meyer after signing the malleable 6-foot-7 guard last November.
 
Meyer, who grew up in Los Angeles and attended an elite prep school in New Hampshire, has the potential to create mismatches for the Pokes in the Mountain West.
 
"It's definitely new to me but I always think it's better to be open minded and embrace the new," Meyer said of adjusting to life in Laramie. "At some point when it's all said and done, I'd like to travel the world. I'm already kind of doing that right now in the U.S."
 
Wicks and assistant Nick Whitmore recruited Meyer for two years before he stepped foot on campus to join the 2025-26 Cowboys.
 
The three-star prospect drew interest from a list of schools, including several in his native California, before choosing UW over Arizona State and Marquette.
 
"He's got more wiggle than most on our team," Wicks said. "As a guy that never had any wiggle – I could dribble two times right and two times left, jump stop and pass – I have to be OK with the creative freedom a guy like that has that you can't teach. He's going to do some things that don't look right at first and all a sudden you're like, yep, great play. It will just be exciting to see what he can do for others."
 
Wicks said Meyer stops by his office daily to watch extra film and could emerge as an "alpha leader" as a true freshman.
 
"It feels real, it feels like family," Meyer said of the chemistry on the team, which includes 11 other newcomers, entering the fifth week of summer workouts. "We've got a couple seniors, a lot of young guys, that hopefully feel the same way I do that we have a really great year and see what we can build on the legacy. That would be dope. I feel like it's great to have new guys connecting and we're all competitive and competing for a spot and getting outside our shell."
 
Wicks said Meyer, who is part of foundational 2025 high school recruiting class that also includes Gavin Gores and Neil Summers, can play and defend almost every position at a high level.
 
"I can do a little bit of everything," Meyer said. "The little things like being more consistent as a shooter, getting to my spots, play-making for teammates and defensively getting stronger, I think that's going to be very important for me. In my opinion the sky is the limit if I'm doing what I need to be doing.
 
"I'm getting better at thinking and playing. That plus my feel (for the game) will ultimately help me be Mr. Fix It for him."
