Jazz Gardner brings size, efficiency, and untapped upside to Saint Mary’s front line
In the 2024-25 season at Pacific, Jazz Gardner averaged 4.6 points and 3.8 rebounds in 17.7 minutes while shooting 60.2% from the field, and Saint Mary’s brought him in for the 2025-26 season as a 7-foot, 250-pound interior presence with real rim-protection potential.[1][2] He’s a classic “big-body with room to grow” fit: physical, efficient around the basket, and useful as a lineup stabilizer, though his offensive game is still developing and he redshirted at Saint Mary’s in 2025-26 after transferring in.[1][2]
