In a defense-first battle, Dixon deserves mention as a standout on the strength of his stifling on-ball defense at the point of attack. Dixon was relentless on that end of the floor, picking up consistently at halfcourt and refusing to allow an inch of space to an overwhelmed group of Holy Cross ballhandlers. He showed an impressive blend of strength, quickness, and technique that could be a handful for D1 guards to contend with in due time. Dixon was steady on the offensive end, contributing an efficient seven points while helping manage primary ballhandling responsibilities. He’s tracking as a potential scholarship-level option with his two-way ability in the backcourt.

A confident ball handler with a legitimate willingness to facilitate the basketball and get other guys involved, Jamal Dixon shined as a table setting floor general for Gill St. Bernard’s offense.
