6-foot-6 CSUN guard James Evans Jr. is a high-upside shot-maker with real bench juice
In the 2025-26 season, James Evans Jr. gave CSUN a burst-scoring spark off the bench, including a 22-point outburst at UC San Diego and a 17-point, 5-of-6 three-point game vs. Cal Poly[7][13]. The draw here is obvious: a 6-foot-6 guard with size, perimeter touch, and top-150 pedigree who can create offense in a hurry[2][10]. He’s not just a box-score guy—his high-school résumé and EYBL background suggest a competitive edge and confidence, though his efficiency has been uneven and he’s still building his all-around consistency[9][10].
