veteran guard with two-way bite and steady shot-making
Jamari Blackmon is a proven, high-motor guard whose calling card has been steady perimeter scoring, playmaking, and disruptive defense. In the 2022-23 season at ULM, he averaged 12.8 points, 3.14 assists, 1.73 steals, and shot 39.5% from three while logging 33.6 minutes per game, with a late-game gear that showed up in a 35-point explosion against Marshall. He brings veteran poise, toughness, and a guard who can both create offense and hound opposing ball-handlers—exactly the kind of connective, competitive piece that helps good teams get older and nastier.
