Long, versatile Illinois State wing with a scorer’s touch and steady all-around production
Brandon Sampay brings a useful blend of size, scoring feel, and two-way activity to Illinois State; in his NCAA seasons there, he produced 4.1 points and 2.6 rebounds per game as a freshman and then jumped to 7.2 points and 5.5 rebounds with improved shooting efficiency as a sophomore.[1] His value profile is built on finishing around the rim, rebounding from the wing, and enough ball skills to contribute beyond pure spot-up work, while his later pro/G League track shows he can score efficiently in smaller bursts as a complementary piece.[4][6] For a team, he fits as a physical, adaptable forward who can help on the glass and in lineup flexibility more than as a one-dimensional specialist.[1][6]
