Jeremiah is a high-IQ, high-motor combo guard who delivers a complete package on both ends of the floor. Whether running the offense at the point or working off the ball as a catch-and-shoot threat, Jeremiah brings confidence, composure, and shot-making wherever he's placed. His quick release, smooth footwork, and sharp decision-making make him a constant threat, especially in the middy where he’s automatic. He thrives in pick-and-roll situations and knows how to play with pace, controlling tempo when needed, then flipping the switch and taking over when the moment demands it.

This past season, Jeremiah averaged 11 points per game while improving his confidence and control. His improved ball-handling and ability to create shots have added depth to his offensive game, and he continues to grow as both a floor general and scoring option. He’s also learned when to lead, when to defer, and how to keep his team steady in critical moments. Coaches know they’re getting someone who plays with heart, understands the game, and brings leadership without needing the spotlight.

That same maturity carried over to AAU, where Jeremiah focused on gaining exposure, representing his squad with pride, and showing scouts that he can handle pressure and make winning plays. His effort never wavers, diving for loose balls, handling traps, breaking presses, and putting his teammates in position to succeed. He’s the guy coaches trust late in games, not just because he can hit a big shot, but because he knows where to be and what to do. His offseason focus is locked in on becoming a stronger defender and expanding his versatility, ready to take on any role and play any position to help his team win.

What fuels Jeremiah is the crowd, the energy of packed gyms, the intensity of late-game situations, and the challenge of high-stakes matchups. Adversity fires him up. His mental toughness and refusal to fold make him stand out in every environment. The best advice he’s ever received from his coach: who said, “Prepare for every game like you just lost your last one,” and “Normal means you fit in. Winning means you stand out.” Jeremiah takes that to heart, and it shows in how he carries himself every day.

With his combination of basketball IQ, confident shooting, and all-out effort, Jeremiah is positioning himself as one of the most reliable and underrated guards in his class. Now a 2nd Team All-District selection, he’s ready for a bigger role, bigger stage, and an even bigger season ahead.

I assess that Jeremiah’s skill set translates at every level. He is a combo guard who can shoot it, think it, and lead it. His ability to stretch the floor with consistent shot-making, stay calm under pressure, and make the right reads in crucial moments makes him a reliable asset in any backcourt. He doesn’t just fill a role; he elevates a system. His coachability, work ethic, and composure give him the tools to anchor a winning culture.

As he continues to develop defensively and add strength, Jeremiah’s ceiling only rises. His game is moving in the right direction, built on IQ, efficiency, and competitive fire. Expect him to take another major step next season as a go-to leader with the ball in his hands and the game on the line. His potential is sky-high, and he is poised for a breakout season ahead.
