Jacksonville’s rugged, two-way forward who made his name on hustle, boards, and rim protection
In his Jacksonville seasons, Antwon Clayton stood out as a high-motor, defense-first forward: as a 2015-16 Atlantic Sun all-freshman selection, he started 23 of 29 games and averaged 5.0 points, 4.5 rebounds, 1.1 steals, and 0.8 blocks per game, then followed with 3.4 points, 3.9 rebounds, 1.3 assists, 0.8 steals, and 0.6 blocks in 2016-17.[1] He’s the kind of glue-piece big who can impact winning without dominating touches—active on the glass, disruptive on defense, and dependable enough to earn minutes early in his career.[1]
