Thomas Jordan is a six-foot-four-inch 2028 Buffalo and Buffalo Legacy forward that offers a good bit of versatility offensively with his ability to shoot from all over, drive to the rim from the perimeter, and his finishing around the rim. Jordan really shines with passing the ball and his size enables him to look over the defense to find teammates for good looks. Jordan is an adequate defender and displays good court IQ.

Thomas went off for an impressive 25 points to lead his Buffalo Legacy team to a win over Minnesota Heat to avenge an earlier loss this month. Though he’s typically been more of a low-post threat in the previous games I’ve watched, he came out and hit back to back threes to start off the game, letting the defense know they have to step out and guard him on the perimeter. Even playing up a year, he showed no fear playing with physicality against opposing bigs, and was constantly getting into tie-ups for loose balls or rebounds. Plays with the strength to go right through forwards around the rim, but also has the footwork to create angles to finish around size.

He is another player for Buffalo Legacy that I think highly of. Jordan will beat you from every level, angle, and depth on the floor. If you give him space, Thomas will cash the 3, if he gets crowded, Thomas will slash for profit. He also rebounds the ball well and hoops the right way. He is a versatile and effective defender. In high school hoops, Jordan averaged 19 ppg at the AAAA level.
