Even though Jalen Suggs committed to Gonzaga, his father has left doors to the pros wide open (via Jackson Frank):

“If I told you I had a better job for you that paid you more money, would you listen? A person has to listen. … Everyone is going to listen. That is how the world works.”

Suggs averaged 13.6 points, 4.3 rebounds and 4.9 assists per game on the AAU circuit for Grassroots Sizzle. The guard also showcased some of his elite skills for Team USA during the U19 World Cup. He flashed 3-and-D potential, averaging 1.3 threes and 2.4 steals per game.
