Georgia’s low-usage, high-motor paint presence with real shot-blocking pop
In the 2025-26 season, Justin Abson gave Georgia a tough, efficient frontcourt minute-eater: 2.9 points, 3.6 rebounds, and 1.6 blocks in 11.4 minutes across 31 games, with strong finishing around the rim and a reputation as the 2024 Sun Belt Defensive Player of the Year.[1][5][12] He’s the kind of fit teams like when they want effort, rim protection, and reliable energy off the bench—not a volume scorer, but a defender who changes possessions and brings a blue-collar edge.[1][12][13]
