Name: Jalen Rhea
Height: 6’1
Weight: 180
Position: Shooting Guard
School: New Albany
Hometown: New Albany, OH
AAU: Martin’s Wolverines
Class: 2013
Evaluation: Dead eye shooter with a lightning quick release that can catch fire after just one make. Rhea is one of the state’s most consistent shooters, and also shows the ability to hit a variety of different shots besides just a standard catch and shoot set shot. Deceptively good off the bounce, he is able to find ways to float the ball in or draw contact to get to the line. Rhea is a guy who is going to score in bunches, and is capable of huge offensive numbers.
Bottom Line: Big time shooter that is an offensive threat the second he steps across of half court. Rhea is being recruited at both the Division I and II level, and could end up at either one.
Notes: Committed to American University.
