Intense 6'5" Forward with Career-High Scoring Flair for UT Arlington
TiAndre Jackson-Young, a 6'5", 193.6-lb forward from Marshall, TX, stands out for his explosive scoring bursts—evidenced by a career-high 19 points in 2019 and a recent 18-point road win against Cal Poly—paired with defensive versatility (steals, blocks) and a high-intensity, no-hesitation playing style. Though his career averages (6.1 PTS, 3.1 REB, 0.6 AST) reflect a role player, his differentiator is his ability to elevate in key moments, shoot 5/8 from three in peak games, and bring relentless energy without injury history. He’s a perfect fit for teams needing a gritty, streaky scorer who can defend multiple positions and ignite momentum, especially in tight games where his intensity and scoring flair make him a reliable X-factor.
