Oregon’s High-Energy Guard Building Confidence After Shooting Slump
Jamari Phillips, a 2028 draft-eligible guard for the Oregon Ducks, is currently averaging 2.65 PPG, 0.88 RPG, and 0.54 APG in the 2025-26 season[2]. While his shooting percentages are concerning (23.8% FG, 26.7% 3P)[3], Phillips shows resilience and intensity, recently logging 28 minutes in a loss to Washington despite a quiet stat line[1]. His differentiator is his willingness to play hard and stay on the floor, suggesting a high ceiling if shooting improves. For teams seeking a gritty, developing guard with draft potential, he’s a fit if you can invest in shooting development; otherwise, he’s a project player with untapped upside.
