Hassan Washington is giving Northern Illinois efficient frontcourt minutes with real finishing pop
Washington’s 2025-26 profile shows a 6'8", 240-pound junior forward who has been efficient around the basket, posting 47.6% shooting in ESPN splits and strong advanced shooting marks on Fox Sports, including 65.6% true shooting and 65.3% effective field goal percentage.[1][3] He also brings size and rebounding activity for a NIU frontcourt piece, but his minutes and overall role are still modest, so the value is more “reliable energy big” than featured scorer.[1][3] If you need a physical forward who can finish efficiently and contribute without needing touches, he’s a sensible fit.[1][3][8]
