Jayden Ross - Breakout candidate for next season Ross is a breakout candidate for the NCAA's 2026-27 season, according to Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports.

Impact The 2020s have seen Connecticut maintain consistent excellence despite an ever-changing college landscape, so it would be unsurprising if a lesser-known Husky takes a statistical leap next season. Ross' unparalleled experience and gradual growth make him a breakout contender, especially for a team now devoid of past championship winners for UConn. In the 2026 NCAA tournament, he averaged 4.0 points, 3.0 rebounds and 1.2 steals across more than 20.0 minutes per game. At worst, the expectation is that Ross logs a regular role during Connecticut's 2026-27 season.
