Pepperdine’s best perimeter spacer, David Mager is emerging as a reliable bench-shotmaker
In the 2025-26 season, David Mager became Pepperdine’s top three-point shooter at .392 from deep while averaging 4.4 points in 10.5 minutes per game, flashing real instant-offense value with a career-high 25 points against Seattle and 16 at Oregon State.[7][10] What makes him interesting is the combination of efficient catch-and-shoot spacing, a proven scoring burst, and clear year-over-year growth from a low-minute role into a trusted bench weapon; he looks like a fit for teams that need a guard who can stretch the floor, stay ready, and change a game quickly without needing touches.[7][12]
