NOTES: Josh Jackson is one of the elite recruits of the Class of 2016, a bonafide five-star recruit who played for Sean Miller on Team USA’s U19 World Junior Championships in Greece earlier this month. Jackson is playing for 1 Nation out of Michigan because he once lived in Southfield, near Detroit. He moved last year to California, where he was born. He is from the San Diego area.

PRO SKILLS ELITE (TEXAS)
Andrew Jones, SG, 6-4, 175, Irving (Texas) MacArthur
NOTES: According to Scout.com, Andrew Jones is one of the biggest breakout performers this summer and Arizona’s coaches have taken notice. Scout.com director of recruiting Evan Daniels writes of Jones: “Trmendous speed and athleticism. He thrives in the open court and has a burst that not many in high school basketball can get to. And because of his pure speed, lateral quickness and length, Jones projects as a good defender down the road.”
