Jamir Watkins brings two-way juice, size, and leadership to FSU
In the 2024-25 season, Jamir Watkins was Florida State’s go-to wing/guard, averaging 18.4 points, 5.7 rebounds, and 2.4 assists while starting every game and giving the Seminoles a high-usage, physical two-way presence[4][5]. What makes him pop is the blend of 6'7" size, switchable defense, and attack mentality—he can create his own shot, guard multiple spots, and set a tone with intensity and maturity, as FSU described him as a “Seminole leader”[3][13]. The swing skill is shooting consistency: scouts praised his versatility but flagged the 3-point and finishing efficiency as areas that held his NBA upside back[11].
