K'Jei Parker brings proven JUCO scoring and spacing to UMass
Parker is a 6-foot-2 guard who arrived at UMass after a breakout Florida SouthWestern season, where he was a First Team All-Conference selection and led the program with 16.8 points per game, 5 rebounds, 4 assists, and a school-record 91 made threes in 2024-25.[1] He carried that shot-making into UMass, where he averaged 10.7 points, 2.0 assists, and 1.9 rebounds in 2025-26 while starting 29 games, showing he can handle real minutes and create offense on a winning roster.[4][5] The big differentiator is his combination of deep-range shooting, secondary playmaking, and the confidence to become a primary option, which makes him a strong fit for teams needing instant perimeter offense.[1][2]
