NJIT Forward Grinding Through Injuries with Late-Season Fire
Da'mir Faison, a resilient 6'8" forward for NJIT Highlanders, overcame a 2021-22 injury-plagued campaign—appearing in just 15 games—to flash upside with a career-high 11 points at Hartford and 7 rebounds vs. Saint Elizabeth, earning starts in the final three regular-season games. Averaging modest 2.8 PTS and 2.2 REB at 53.2% FG this season per ESPN, his HS pedigree from Hazleton's playoff runs and redshirt-freshman grit make him a high-motor bench spark with rebounding tenacity. Ideal fit for teams needing tough, developing bigs who battle back.
