Primarily a catch and shoot stretch 4, Strite earned his first offer this summer when EKU offered the big man. Jackson is a high level shooter who has a high ceiling as a prospect if he can increase his overall athleticism. A mismatch on the offensive end of the court, Strite has shown flashes of being a solid rim protector and rebounder on the defensive end of the floor. The next year will be massive for Jackson’s development.
A big shooter who projects as a stretch 4 or face up 5 at the college level, Strite has a chance to be really good as he gets more well rounded. Jackson has to continue to improve athletically in order to reach his ceiling. If he becomes more explosive and showcases the ability to shot fake and get past his defender, Strite’s potential is off the charts because he’s an ELITE shooter from 3.
One of the elite shooters in Kentucky’s 2028 class, Strite can knock down shots at an extremely high level and Midwest Basketball Club 16 U has the infrastructure around him to create a lot of set looks for him off the catch. Strite was knocking down shots at a high level and even scored a couple times against smaller bigs with putback layups. For Strite, playing tough and physical in the paint is going to determine how much playing time he gets with this group that expects to contend for a 3SSB title after winning the championship at the 15 U level last year.
Climbing up 14 spots on the strength of a big summer and camp season, Jackson goes from 27th to 13th overall and is knocking on the door of the top ten. A face up big, Strite has a lot of potential thanks to his size and shooting ability. If he can get more efficient on the block and improve his overall athleticism, schools will be lining up.
Strite continues to establish himself as a top stretch forward prospect in the class thanks to his shooting ability. Jackson still needs to continue developing his all around game to reach his ceiling as a prospect. I’d love to see him in some trail ball screen action where he has the option to roll or pop. If Strite can be an aggressive rebounder on both ends, he is capable of averaging a double double this season.
Jackson was one of the best shooters at the event, which is even more impressive with his 6’8 height and big frame. Early in the afternoon, Strite was very active on the offensive glass and finished several possessions with a putback score. Overall, I’d like to see Jackson continue developing his midrange game and put the ball on the floor more but he is a true inside-out threat with his size and ability. He and Mason GrivnaMasonGrivna

should be a nightmare to guard at Ballard this season.
A prospect who is starting to scratch the surface of his potential, Strite went 4/6 from 3-point range and finished with 17 points on Wednesday evening. If you can space the floor at his size, there will be a spot for you somewhere on a competitive team. While he is limited in the paint due to his current frame, I believe Strite can add muscle and eventually become more of a factor at the rim at both ends of the court. A prospect who has always flashed potential, it was very encouraging to see him turn that into production on Wednesday.
Strite is a stretch 4 or faceup 5 man who could is a sleeper in the class if he gets stronger and more comfortable in the low post area. Jackson is still growing and filling out his frame so he’s a long way from his ceiling. He only played a handful of varsity games last season but looks like he’ll have an opportunity to start or at least be a heavy rotation piece for Male.
Strite has a chance to be really good as he starts to fill out his frame. Already possessing great size and the ability to knock down three pointers, Jackson could be a stretch 4 or face up 5, long term. Male has a very good Freshman class and Strite could end up the highest upside of the whole group, depending on how he develops.
Male has 5 freshmen, an 8th grader and a 7th grader on the varsity roster. They are very young, especially for the 7th region. Jackson StriteJacksonStrite

has only appeared in one varsity game but he’s got size and legitimate skill. Assuming everyone stays put at Male, the Bulldogs will be absolutely loaded for the next 3 years and Strite could end up being one of the best on the roster as he develops his game and continues growing.
