Damon Howard Jr. is a young TSU guard with point-guard feel, but his shot is still coming along
Howard Jr., a freshman guard for Tennessee State in the 2025-26 season, is averaging 1.7 points, 0.7 rebounds, and 0.9 assists in 21 games, with a 26.7% field-goal mark and 25.0% from three, so the production is modest right now but the profile suggests a developing lead guard rather than a finished scorer. He brings proven playmaking from high school, where he posted 11.5 points, 2.9 assists, and 3.0 rebounds per game, and his value is more about upside, pace, and ballhandling than immediate efficiency. For a roster needing a long-term guard project, he is intriguing; for an instant-impact scorer, not yet.
