Jacob Donaldson to McKendree
McKendree picked up a solid pledge on Friday morning with the commitment of Effingham 2017 small forward Jacob Donaldson.
The 6’6” forward showed flashes during the high school season when we saw him, but he played mostly on the interior. The 2017 prospect showed in camps and on the circuit he can handle the ball attacking the cup. Super bouncy off the floor. Long arms and projectable body. Plays with a motor and competes defensively. Presents some upside with athleticism.
Donaldson ran with the Illinois Bears on the travel team circuit throughout his high school career. He is the #25 small forward prospect in the state’s 2017 class.
