Virginia's Sharpshooting Forward Now Dominating Overseas with Basket Brno
Jake Groves, the 6'9" graduate transfer forward, lit up Virginia in 2023-24 with 7.4 PPG on elite 45.9% 3PT shooting as a catch-and-shoot specialist in 34 games (15 starts), complementing Tony Bennett's pack-line defense. His efficient stroke (45.0% FG) and academic accolades highlight a high-IQ, low-maintenance pro prospect. Now thriving in Czech Republic's top league with Basket Brno in 2025-26 (18.6 PPG, 60.0% FG early), recent 22-pt outbursts showcase scoring versatility—ideal for teams needing spacing bigs with NBA undrafted grit.
