Jimma James brings length, playmaking, and efficient scoring upside to Queens
In the 2024-25 junior-college season, Jimma James showed a versatile guard profile with 10.8 points, 3.1 rebounds, and 2.1 assists per game as a freshman, then 8.3 points, 4.8 rebounds, 3.8 assists, 54% shooting, and 37% from three as a sophomore. Queens signed him as a 6'6" guard with real size, and the appeal is obvious: he can handle, create, rebound, and score without needing a huge usage load. The fit screams two-way wing-guard with connective playmaking and sneaky matchup trouble for smaller backcourts.
