Hometown guard Jack DeRose brings grinder energy and shooting touch to Bonnies backcourt
In the 2025-26 season, Jack DeRose is a St. Bonaventure walk-on guard whose value is less about box-score volume and more about hustle, local pride, and shooting confidence—he scored his first career points with a three-pointer in the 2024-25 NIT and grew up in Olean, where he was a first-team league standout and hit 41 points with a school-record 12 threes in high school. He looks like a fit for teams that want a steady, hard-nosed guard who understands role acceptance, competes with edge, and can space the floor without needing the ball fed to him constantly.
