Virginia’s stretch-big shot-blocker who quietly tilts games
In the 2020-21 season at Virginia, Jay Huff averaged 13.0 points, 7.1 rebounds, and 2.6 blocks while shooting 58.5% from the field, 38.7% from three, and 83.7% at the line—rare two-way efficiency for a 7-foot-1 forward[3][11]. His big differentiators were rim protection, floor spacing, and touch: he led the ACC in field-goal percentage and ranked near the top of the league in blocks, making him a plug-and-play fit for teams that want a modern stretch big who can defend the paint without clogging it[3][12][14].
