steady, high-IQ Air Force guard who can shoot it and run the offense
Jacob Van’s calling card at Air Force was two-way guard steadiness: in the 2016-17 season he ranked third on the team in scoring at 10.6 points per game, led the Falcons with 93 assists, and finished second in the Mountain West in free throw percentage at 83.6%. He also flashed real shot-making pop, including a season-high 23 points and career-high eight assists vs. Jacksonville, plus a 40.2% career 3-point clip in Air Force history. If you want a composed lead guard who can space the floor, handle the ball, and make the simple play under pressure, Van is your guy.
