Efficient Big Man with Elite Shooting Touch from the Forward Position
The Helsinki, Finland native is a reliable, high-efficiency scorer and rebounder for Cal Poly. In the 2023-24 season, Jaakkola started all 30 games, shooting 50.9% from the field (sixth in Big West Conference), while averaging 7.0 PPG and leading the team with 3.6 RPG and 21 blocks. His standout performance—18 points on 9-for-10 shooting against Iowa—showcases his ability to finish around the rim with precision. A consistent, low-maintenance contributor who maximizes limited opportunities, Jaakkola represents a solid depth piece for programs seeking a skilled, efficient forward with international experience and proven durability.
