Jaden DeJesus | 6’8 F | Christian Brothers
DeJesus has the size, presence and an aggressive mentality to make an immediate impact. At 6’8, he embraces the physicality of playing inside, protecting the rim and rebounding with authority. What stands out most is how ready he is physically to battle with older bigs. Offensively, he keeps things simple but effective, finishing strong around the basket and looking to dunk whenever the opportunity is there. He even showed flashes of versatility when grabbing rebounds and pushing the ball up the court himself. With teammates like Joaquin Lucero-Mattis, Braeden Hennelly Braeden Hennelly 6'4" | SF/PF Christian Brothers | 2027 State CA-N and Andre Rabb-Patterson Andre Rabb-Patterson 6'3" | SG McClatchy | 2027 State CA-N alongside him, Christian Brothers now have someone with size that they can feature in the front-court.

He’ll have instant impact entering his first year of high school basketball. He’ll command attention in the paint. He’s still raw and will have his ups and downs. He has the size, developing post skills, and hunger. He wants the ball, can use a dribble or two coming across the lane. On balance he’ll throw down dunks in traffic. He’ll get his rebounds, change and block some shots. There’s some paint presence.
