Score-first guards 6'3" and shorter currently playing in the NBA (which we'll arbitrarily define as assist rate of 25 or lower*):

Avery Bradley (Celtics)
Isaiah Thomas (Celtics)
Markel Brown (Nets)
Brian Roberts (Hornets)
Kemba Walker (Hornets)
Aaron Brooks (Bulls)
Kyrie Irving (Cavs)
Monta Ellis (Mavericks)
Ian Clark (Nuggets)
Leandro Barbosa (Warriors)
Patrick Beverly (Rockets)
Nick Johnson (Rockets)
Jason Terry (Rockets)
Dwight Buycks (Lakers)
Russ Smith (Grizzlies)
Tyler Johnson (Heat)
Jerryd Bayless (Bucks)
Toney Douglas (Pelicans)
Jimmer Fredette (Pelicans)
Langston Galloway (Knicks)
Russell Westbrook (OKC)
Ben Gordon (Magic)
Willie Green (Magic)
Jerel McNeal (Suns)
Damian Lillard (TrailBlazers)

I see about four starters on this list - Lillard, Westbrook, Ellis, and Irving - and I would argue that ALL of them are the guys bringing the ball up the floor and running the offense.  But there may be one or two more on the list.


So maybe Randle has a chance to come off the bench as a 3rd or 4th guard, but that's about it.
