The 5th overall pick in 2021, Jalen Suggs is a physical, 6’4 guard w/ a fearless mentality; tough finisher in the paint, Suggs invites contact when driving to the lane* - liable to put anyone on a poster (via oops, straight drives, tip slams) - goes up with max. effort when there’s a clean runway; shot extremely well in his 3rd season: Suggs isn’t afraid to let it fly - good form, has discovered when/where to attack within the flow of the offensive; specializes in a lot of “little things” - always on the floor diving for loose balls; lockdown defender: 2nd-Team All-Defense in ‘23-’24: Suggs has great quickness, likes to harass at the point of attack (able to check larger guards & 3s?), goes all out to limit his matchup (frustrates opponents mentally and physically); playing off-ball has aided positive, long-term tendencies as a secondary playmaker; good control w/ the rock in his hands, still learning how to play efficiently outta the PnR; must stay effecient as a focal point in the offense moving forward; made tremendous strides in Year 3 - Suggs is a do-it-all, two-way player in Jamahl Mosley’s lineup
