Wyoming’s do-it-all wing who packed a pro-ready punch
In his Wyoming days, Justin James stood out as a long, versatile guard-wing who could score, rebound, and create, leading the Mountain West in scoring at 22.1 points per game in the 2018-19 season while also posting 8.5 rebounds, 4.4 assists, and 1.5 steals per game. He paired volume production with defensive playmaking and a 7-1 wingspan profile, which made him a tough matchup and a fit for teams needing an assertive, multi-tool perimeter threat. The main question has always been efficiency and translating his high-usage style against bigger, faster defenders.
