Jai Deshpande gives Brandeis a 3-level scoring punch with veteran juice
Deshpande is a 6-foot-5 graduate-transfer guard for Brandeis who arrived after scoring 1,000+ points at Whitman and earning First Team All-Northwest Conference honors; Brandeis described him as bringing “3 level scoring and athleticism.” In the 2025-26 season, he’s already been a steady offensive piece, including a 13-point, 6-rebound outing against Rochester, and he was back in the mix after missing time early in the year. He’s the kind of older, polished wing who adds shot-making, size, and mature tempo—good fit if a team wants a versatile scorer with real college mileage.
