Versatile Arizona State guard with pro-level toughness
Blakes was a high-minute, two-way Arizona State guard who, in the 2015-16 season, averaged 11.1 points, 4.2 rebounds, and 1.8 assists in 25.5 minutes per game while starting 33 of 34 games.[2] His profile stands out for physical, downhill scoring and guard rebounding, and his later pro stops show he can handle a larger creation load, including 18.0 points and 5.0 assists per game in the 2026 Basketball Champions League.[1] If you want a tough, competitive combo guard who can score without needing the ball every possession, he fits the mold.[1][2][3]
