Spoiler for the puzzle of Thursday, September 3, 2026. Today's puzzle is not revealed anywhere on this page.

Jalen Suggs

Jalen Suggs

G · 2021–2027

Jalen Suggs's career

Jalen Suggs played 6 seasons between 2021 and 2027, all of it with the Magic. Over 268 regular-season games he averaged 12.6 points, 3.4 rebounds and 3.8 assists, finishing with 3,384 career points.

He entered the league in the 2021 draft, taken 5th overall, a lottery pick expected to start immediately. That makes him a product of the 2020s, and his career totals should be read against the pace and rules of that period.

Across a short career of 6 seasons he was a rotation piece at 12.6 points per game.

Why this was a fair answer

Jalen Suggs was never an All-Star, so he reaches the answer pool by the second route: current players with a genuine offensive role, at least 12 points per game and 150 career games. At 12.6 points across 268 games he clears that bar comfortably, which is why a player without the honours of the pool's headline names can still turn up as an answer.

A one-franchise career made the shared-team clue brutal: it stayed grey for almost every guess, and went green only for players from that same roster. A recent debut meant the arrow pointed forward for nearly every guess, which narrows the field quickly once you trust it. He never won a title, which quietly rules out a large share of the most-guessed names.
