Jordan is an electric point guard who controls the game with intensity, craft, and grit. Jordan brings it every time he steps on the court. He’s a fierce competitor with a dynamic handle and an explosive first step that keeps defenders guessing. Whether it’s blowing by his man or snatching momentum with a clutch charge, Jordan plays with a fire that never fades. His playmaking ability is crafty, unpredictable, and dynamic as he slices through defenders with explosive moves and delivers dazzling passes that set teammates up to shine. He’s not just quick but calculated, composed, and capable of flipping a game in seconds. Jordan's tenacious defensive swagger is elite.

Jordan’s ability to score at will is deadly. He averaged an impressive 15.8 points per game this past season, while adding 4.7 rebounds, dishing out 3.4 assists, and collecting a fierce 5.8 steals per game. The numbers don't lie and speak volumes about his two-way impact. His biggest improvement was his creativity around the rim. Now more crafty and unpredictable than ever, he’s finishing tough buckets through contact and showing off an evolving jumper from beyond the arc. But he’s not satisfied. Jordan’s goal is to build an even more dangerous three-point shot this offseason, adding another level to his already potent offensive skill set.

This past season, the biggest difference-maker was his ability to collapse defenses and kick the ball out to open shooters. This skill kept his team’s offense alive and flowing. He stepped into a leadership role, starting varsity as a sophomore, and made every minute count.

This summer, he’s set to play with the Dothan Hoop Vipers, hungry to win at least three tournaments and stand out in front of scouts and coaches. The Live Period in Suwannee, Georgia (May 16-18) is circled on his calendar, and he’s looking forward to making noise.

Off the court, Jordan enjoys chilling with friends and finding ways to clear his mind while staying grounded and focused in a world that’s always moving fast. What gets Jordan truly fired up is an And-1 finish and locking down his assignment on defense. He doesn’t back down from adversity. Instead, he embraces it by staying calm, staying sharp, and lifting his teammates when the going gets tough. That leadership shined through during a rough stretch when his team hit a losing streak. His coach pulled him aside and delivered a powerful truth: “You’re the key to this team. When you’re in control, they follow.” That advice stuck, and it’s become a part of how he carries himself every time he steps between the lines.

Jordan’s summer plans include camps, showcases, and visits like Huntingdon College, where he’ll be looking to sharpen his game and gain valuable exposure before another high-impact high school season. He’s looking forward to leading his squad and taking things to another level next year.

I assess that Jordan has the qualities you want in a true floor general. A high motor, a fearless mindset, and a gift for sparking energy on both ends. His versatility as a scorer and defender makes him a valuable piece to any team looking for someone who brings heart, hustle, and skill every possession. He doesn’t take plays off, and his love for the dirty work, like charges, boards, steals, sets him apart from many guards his age. Explosiveness off the bounce, elite anticipation on defense, crafty finisher, vocal leader, unselfish playmaker, and high basketball IQ will impact a college program. Jordan’s ability to dictate tempo, stretch defenses, and anchor a press could immediately boost any up-tempo system. His intensity and willingness to lead through adversity show he’s built for big moments and high-level environments. His growth as a three-level scorer will only increase his value at the next level.

Expect a relentless, confident, and ever-improving leader who will not only continue to rack up stats but win games with hustle plays, energy, and the kind of passion that elevates everyone around him. His potential is sky-high as a fierce guard with next-level quickness, toughness, and a chip on his shoulder big enough to carry him to the college stage and beyond. Stay tuned.
