has a laundry list of tools that he brings as a 6-foot-6 hybrid forward that would make DII and DIII programs line up for. With Allen, the key is playing with 100 percent effort on every possession and truly dialing in on the defensive end so those gifts come to the forefront. When he’s in his flow state, Allen can mix up his scoring tactics operating in the mid-post or on the block where he can hit tough fallaways or get to his left shoulder for hooks. He also plays with feel and instincts as a screen-and-pop guy that can make decisions as a swingman at the top of the key. When he gets downhill, he brings a surprising layer of wiggle to get to the rim. Allen is a presence on the glass and notched his fair share of double-doubles throughout the spring and summer. His size, versatility, and feel leave plenty of room for growth and potential for a healthy boost if he can get off to a hot start this high school season.

is a 6-foot-6 prospect in the Class of 2026. Considering his innate ability to impact all facets of the game, he founds several ways to make his presence felt on both ends of the floor. Jack is a natural glue-guy who can do a healthy amount of everything on the court. He can initiate the offense, score from all levels, and outwork opponents to make hustle plays. Jack is a quality rebounder for his size and is comfortable toggling across multiple positions defensively. Next in his development process is working on becoming a craftier ball-handler, as it would make him a more complete player. Jack is a sound athlete with long arms and useful ability in the open floor. Good catch-and-shoot option who runs the floor and plays above the rim in transition.” Jack does a lot of things well for the BCC program and should be an incredibly productive focal point for BCC this season…College level prospect that carries a 3.8GPA

Jack is a fundamentally sound forward who brings an old-school approach to the game. He is respected for his calm pace and relentless effort every time he takes the court. Floor spacing shooter range extends out to 17-18 feet.

opened his summer league with a huge performance for BCC. Jack’s elite motor and toughness were great today, and it felt like he outworked everyone on the court. Jack has excellent touch and uses his strength to get to the rim. Jack’s physicality helped him get to the line a lot, and a small Riverside team had no answer for him. He finished with 30 points and 10 rebounds in a BCC blowout win.

Allen is an old-school forward who thrives inside of twelve feet. He has great touch around the basket. He does a nice job of powering his way downhill. Allen has a good feel for the game and was able to find teammates for scoring chances. He doesn’t look to force looks on the offensive end. He will be a priority recruit for small colleges across the northeast.
