Jamison is a dynamic 3-level scorer with a lethal pull-up game and crafty footwork that keeps defenders skating. Whether he’s exploding past a defender off the bounce or burying a jumper from the parking lot with his unlimited range, Jamison attacks each possession with relentless confidence. He can blow by you with either hand, spin into space, or float one in over size. when he draws the defense, he can drop a sweet dime to the open man. Jamison's nonstop motor allowed him to. be a force on the glass as well. His blend of versatility and fierce competitive energy makes him a nightmare to contain and a thrill to watch.


This past season, Jamison was cookin' torched the nets to the tune of 26.5 points per game, while shooting a blistering 57% from the field and 37% from deep, adding 6 rebounds and dishing out 2 assists per game. His most explosive performance was a record-shattering 46-point explosion, putting his name in the school’s history books.


Jamison’s biggest improvement this year came in how he embraced being the focal point of every scouting report. Instead of backing down, he thrived on the pressure and demanding the ball. He’s put a major emphasis on developing change-of-pace moves, ballhandling, and the ability to lock up on defense for a full 94 feet. The offseason is about adding muscle, tightening his handle, and becoming even more deadly with or without the ball. His biggest motivator is proving that he’s a complete player and not just a scorer, but a grinder who leads and defends with pride.


Jamison plays with South Sound Roots on the Puma NXTPRO Circuit, and every stop this spring and summer is another chance to showcase his all-around game. He’s especially hyped for the Wichita live period, where he knows college coaches will be watching closely. His goal is to show he’s the type of guy who can help a team win in every way. Jamison isn’t chasing box score glory alone, he’s chasing wins, and he’s willing to do the dirty work to get them.


Off the court, he’s all about the moments, whether that be road trips with his team, cracking up with teammates, or feeding off the student sections, especially at rivalry games. There’s nothing like hitting a big shot in a hostile gym and hearing the crowd fall silent. That fuels his fire. The louder the building, the more energized he becomes. But Jamison stays grounded in something deeper: his faith in God, and the rock-solid mindset instilled in him by his parents, “Life isn’t supposed to be easy.” He believes basketball prepares you for everything else, testing your body and mind every day.


When facing adversity Jamison embraces it. He knows the grind matters because, in his words, “Outputs are a direct result of inputs.” He doesn’t flinch. He doesn’t look for shortcuts. He shows up and goes to work. The best advice he’s ever received is “There are no shortcuts. You have to put in the work.” And Jamison does just that every single day.


I assess that Jamison is a high-impact scorer with dangerous shooting touch and playmaking instincts. His ability to create off the bounce, pull up in traffic, or drive either direction makes him extremely tough to guard one-on-one. He brings swagger and toughness, with a competitive fire that shines brightest in big moments. His defense has taken a big leap, and his improved ability to pressure the ball gives him true two-way potential at the next level. He is athletic, fluid, and aggressive and capable of putting points up in bunches while also leading by example with effort and intensity.


Jamison projects as a versatile backcourt weapon at the college level who can move between point and shooting guard depending on the matchup. His shot-making, court awareness, and ability to take over late in games are college-ready tools. What sets him apart is his relentlessness on both ends and his hunger to do more than just score. Programs looking for a tough, wired-to-compete guard with upside, production, and personality should keep him circled on their radar.


Expect Jamison to continue pushing the limits of his game. He’s on a mission to lead his high school to the SunDome and show college coaches he’s more than numbers but he’s a winner. He’s coming back bigger, stronger, faster, and more focused than ever. The road trips, tough matchups, and roaring crowds only make him better. He’s built for it and he’s just getting started. Stay tuned.
