rugged Dayton guard who brings defense, toughness, and late-game nerve
In the 2025-26 season, Jordan Derkack has been a do-it-all senior guard for Dayton, averaging 9.2 points, 4.8 rebounds, 2.5 assists, and 1.2 steals in 24.9 minutes while showing a real edge in big moments. He’s valued for his toughness, competitiveness, and physical 6-foot-5 frame, and he’s the kind of guard who can guard multiple spots, rebound like a wing, and keep winning possessions alive. The catch: his efficiency has been streaky, so he fits best with a team that needs grit, versatility, and high-motor glue play.
