Personal Bio/PreCareer Summary

Ighodaro spent the four years of his college career at Marquette, and even though he rarely saw the court as a freshman, he eventually found a role with the program. Ighodaro was a reliable contributor off the bench as a sophomore, averaging 5.5 points while logging 18.2 minutes per game. By the start of his junior season, he had already become a regular starter. Ighodaro averaged double-digit points in his final two seasons at Marquette while racking up 72 starts between his junior and senior years. He posted his best season as a senior during the 2023-24 campaign, where he averaged career-best marks in points (13.4), rebounds (4.3) and steals (1.1) per game. Ighodaro was named to the All-Big East Second Team in both the 2022-23 and 2023-24 seasons, and he was also named to the 2023-24 All-Big East Tournament. Ighodaro might not have one area where he stands out, but he doesn't have glaring weaknesses. His versatility to contribute on both ends of the court might be his calling card. He can stretch the floor due to his above-average shooting touch and is comfortable attacking the rim, though he's a bit undersized to play at center. Ighodaro's passing and vision are severely underrated and he is comfortable creating for others in the low post. Ighodaro does have several areas in which he can improve his game, such as his consistency as a shooter, his decision-making, and his ability to finish near the rim, which is already good but might not translate effectively to the NBA due to the quality of the defenders he'll be facing. Given that he's a big man who can facilitate for his teammates while also protecting the rim, his game resembles a more athletic Jusuf Nurkic. However, considering he still needs to work on his defense, he has made strides in that regard, impressing in the 2024 NBA Draft Combine with his ability to set screens and switch onto smaller players. That said, he might find it easier to thrive on offense than defense at the start of his NBA career. While he might not have the All-Star ceiling of other versatile big men such as Domantas Sabonis, he should be a serviceable frontcourt player for years to come, either in a starting role or off the bench.

Ighodaro isn't in the starting lineup for Thursday's game against the Pelicans.
ANALYSIS
The Suns will roll with Mason Plumlee at center for the second time in three games since Jusuf Nurkic (thigh) went on the shelf, sending Ighodaro to the bench after posting a decent final line Tuesday against the Spurs. The Marquette product is averaging 3.8 points, 4.3 rebounds and 1.3 steals in 16.5 minutes over his last four appearances as a reserve.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Praised by Kevin Durant
CPhoenix Suns
December 3, 2024
Ighodaro was praised by Kevin Durant following his play in the Suns' win over the Warriors on Saturday, Nov. 30, according to Gerald Bourguet of GoPHNX.com. "We expect that out of them. I think that's what they bring to our team is that energy, that aggressiveness on defense, that physicality on defense....They're setting a high standard for themselves every night," Durant said.
ANALYSIS
Ighodaro played 31 minutes off the bench in the win over the Warriors, finishing with six points and eight rebounds, and his energy was praised by Durant, one of the most veteran players in the league. The big man is making the most of his minutes, and Ighodaro should continue to see time out there with Jusuf Nurkic sidelined due to a right thigh contusion.
