Jakenyon McGhee brings length, hustle, and a developing inside game to Tougaloo
In the 2025-26 season, Jakenyon McGhee is a 6'8 freshman forward for Tougaloo who has shown flashes as a low-usage energy piece, playing 17 games with 3 starts and averaging 8.8 minutes, 3.7 rebounds, and 3.7 points per game on 35.7% shooting, with 13 offensive rebounds showing real activity on the glass[1][3][4]. He looks like a fit for teams that value length, board work, and a willing role player who can grow into a more reliable scorer as his frame fills out; the early read is “upside defender/rebounder with a projectable motor,” not a finished product[3][4].
