Jay Head gives Grambling State a long, physical wing with proven rebounding instincts
Jay Head is a 6-7 forward whose value is built more on size, toughness, and board work than box-score flash. In his 2019-20 season at Grambling State, he averaged 0.8 points, 0.5 rebounds, 0.3 assists, and 0.3 steals in 5.8 minutes per game, which points to a low-usage, energy role rather than a featured scorer. The upside is clear: he’s a long-bodied, versatile forward who can bring effort, physicality, and defensive length—exactly the kind of glue-piece coaches love when they want pace, grit, and depth.
