Suggs, Jalen  Gonzaga 6'5" 205 SG frosh.

Suggs is a special talent that impacts the game on offense and defense. He is a right handed guard that has good size, great speed, and gifted instincts. He was the first player to be both Mr. Football and Mr. Basketball in the state of Minnesota. At Gonzaga, as a freshman, he averaged 14.4 points, 5.3 rebounds and 4.5 assists per contest. He led the WCC in steals with 1.9 per game, and he also had the best DEFRTG of any WCC player. He shot 33.7% from three-point range, and 75.4% FT. His assist-to-turnover ratio was 1.54-to-1, which is much more "combo-guard" than true "point guard". ...Suggs was the West Coast Conference Tournament MVP. ...We felt that Suggs stood out in college basketball in 2020-21. He repeatedly made big plays when it mattered most. He competes every time he is on the floor and his toughness will be adored by fans, teammates, and coaches. We expect Suggs to be the fourth player selected. He is number one on our list. 

 

Our best advice: in 2013, the 1st pick was Anthony Bennett. We advised, "draft Victor Oladipo."
