Destiny Jackson’s pace, passing, and poise make her a high-upside two-way lead guard
Jackson arrived at Loyola Chicago as a proven floor general with a strong pedigree, having been a highly regarded Chicago-area recruit and then a freshman starter who averaged 9.9 points, 4.3 rebounds and 5.2 assists at Illinois in 2025-26. She stands out for her playmaking, toughness, and steal production, and her recent growth in scoring aggression suggests she can run an offense while still creating her own shot. At 5-foot-6, she’s not a size-driven fit, but she brings intensity, feel, and winning habits that translate well to a team needing a composed, energetic backcourt engine.
