Chris Lockett Jr. gives Jacksonville a tough, efficient two-way backcourt punch
In the 2025-26 season, Chris Lockett Jr. emerged as a steady third-leading scorer for Jacksonville, appearing in all 32 games with 11 starts and averaging 9.3 points, 3.1 rebounds, and 1.7 assists while hitting 85% from the free-throw line.[1][4][11] The differentiators: he’s a 6-foot-4 guard with good shot-making range, enough physicality to handle bigger matchups, and proven upside after popping for 25 points in an overtime win over EKU and 22 in the opener.[1][8][15] He looks like a useful fit if a team wants a confident scorer who can grow into more on-ball responsibility.
