Jordan Pickett brings two-way local star power and shot-making pop to SIUE
In the 2025-26 season, the 6-foot-3 SIUE guard has been a steady rotation piece with scoring flashes, hitting 5 of 8 from the field and 4 of 6 from three in a 15-point outing against Eureka, while season-long team stats show he’s been used as a reliable complementary scorer rather than a volume stopper. Pickett’s calling card is efficient perimeter shooting, enough size for the guard spot, and a competitive local pedigree—he arrived after a decorated Belleville East career and was named all-state and all-metro in high school. He looks like a fit for teams that want a poised, lower-usage guard who can punish closeouts and stay within the structure.
