low-usage, high-motor Dayton forward with real length
In the 2025-26 season, Jacob Conner has given Dayton a steady frontcourt presence, averaging 3.2 points, 2.3 rebounds and 1.1 assists while shooting 40.4% from the field and 29.7% from three[2][4]. His value goes beyond the box score: at 6-foot-10, he brings size, defensive versatility and turnover-forcing instincts, plus a team-first profile as a senior leader and student-athlete rep[5]. He’s not a volume scorer, but he looks like the kind of connective, high-IQ role player who fits teams that want length, discipline and a willing defender who knows his lane[3][5].
