Tristan Thompson is a glass-cleaning freshman with real upside at St. Mary’s (MD)
In the 2025-26 season, Tristan Thompson has flashed his best trait as a rebound-first forward, including a career-high 15 boards and 9 points in a win over Valley Forge, plus an 11-point, 4-rebound, 2-steal outing earlier in the year. He’s a 6-foot-5 freshman from Urbana, Maryland, who brings energy, physicality, and hustle plays more than polished scoring right now, but that rebounding motor is exactly the kind of glue-piece trait coaches love. If your team wants toughness and effort, he’s worth a long look.
