Josh Okogie, Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets

Josh Okogie had a fabulous first season for Georgia Tech. The 6’4″ guard is a pure scorer who can also rebound the ball decently. Additionally, he gets to line a great deal and is a solid defender.

Okogie scored in double figures in 32 of 37 games this past season. He scored 20 or more points nine times and had two-30-point scoring efforts. Okogie nearly averaged 20 points in five NIT games.

For the season, Okogie averaged 16.1 points and 5.4 rebounds while shooting 45.3% from the field and 38.4% from beyond the arc. He was rated between a two and three-star prospect coming out of Snellville, Georgia.
