R.J. Blakney brings size, defensive juice, and sneaky versatility to Old Dominion
In the 2024-25 season, R.J. Blakney averaged 6.4 points, 4.6 rebounds, and 1.0 assist for Old Dominion, while also chipping in 1.0 steal and 0.5 blocks per game—useful two-way production from a 6-6 forward who can defend multiple spots and make hustle plays.[6][13] His shot dipped in efficiency in 2024-25, but the tape-and-stats combo still points to a physical, active role player with rebounding toughness and enough length to fit a team that values switchability and grit.[3][11][13]
