Jacob Buckland (G/F, East Jackson)
Buckland is a 6’5 guard with in the gym range, Buckland has started his freshman and sophomore season for the Trojans and hasn’t disappointed. The 6’5 guard has improved his jump shot this season tremendously while also adding some size being able to get down in the paint with the best of them. Buckland has a pass-first mindset but when his number is called and the Trojans need to get it done Buckland has no problem stepping into the light and getting it done, being able to score on all levels and being a perimeter defender and rim protector on the defensive end he is a nightmare for a lot of opponents!
