About JD
Expert Analysis
Cam Rickers | Prep Hoops Scout
We haven’t seen much of Palm in recent months as he’s been out with injury but he should be a vital piece for McEachern in the fall, likely a top 25 team nationally. Palm is an athletic big man that makes his impact primarily in the paint, blocking shots and grabbing boards. His offensive game was beginning to take shape when i last saw him and he’s got high upside given his length and athleticism.

Palm transferred into McEachern this year from Alabama and quickly earned a spot near the top of the state rankings. He’s a long, athletic big that can rim protect and rebound at a high-level. Offensively, he’s a powerful finisher at the cup. Anytime he can get a clean jump, Palm is dunking it with authority. Alabama and Alabama St are his only offers to my knowledge.
