veteran Merrimack guard back in the mix after missing a season
In the 2025-26 season, Jaylen Stinson is a senior/grad guard for Merrimack who returned after missing all of the previous season with an injury, which makes his availability and rhythm a key storyline. He profiles as a steady, experienced backcourt piece rather than a high-volume star, with past production showing modest scoring, solid shooting flashes, and enough guard skills to help organize possessions. The appeal here is grit, maturity, and upside if his health holds; he looks like a useful fit for a team that values poise, toughness, and low-drama backcourt reliability.
