Depth-Chart Guard With Size, Shooting Feel and Proven High-School Production
Peakes is a Rice junior guard who projects more as a steady connector than a volume scorer right now, with limited 2024-25 game action but a productive high-school résumé that included 20.1 points, 6.5 rebounds and 3.7 assists as a senior while shooting 82% at the line and 41% from three.[1][3] His differentiators are size, shot-making touch and versatility as a guard, plus enough rebounding and playmaking to hint at a balanced game, though his current college role suggests he is still earning trust and minutes.[1][3] For a team, he fits as a developmental backcourt piece with skill upside rather than an immediate high-usage creator.[1][3]
