Chatman is an awesome player. For a super talented Blair Academy team that has Deron Rippey Jr. at the helm of their offense, the 6-foot-2 guard still finds a way to play an effective role. He can run pick and roll with the ball in his hands; he does a good job putting defender’s in jail and making patient, decisive reads in the paint. But he can also cut and move off the ball and will force the defense to tilt to him because of his shooting ability. He also just seems like a winner—Blair struggled without him in the second half of the championship game, because Chatman seems to plug all their holes on both ends. He’ll be at Rhode Island next season, and I would anticipate him playing right away.

One half of one of the nation’s most potent backcourts, Chatman wasn’t at his most efficient but still provided a key source of secondary scoring to help engineer the win. The Rhode Island commit was at his best as a floor-spacer from the perimeter, consistently posing a dangerous threat as a movement shooter in the halfcourt and transition, despite his shot not falling at its usual rate. He was also dynamic getting into the paint whether attacking closeouts or pushing the ball in transition. Chatman consistently finds ways to impact the game at a high level even when not playing at his absolute best, a trait which bodes well for his ability to get on the floor early at the next level.

Jaen Chatman Jaen Chatman Jaen Chatman 6'2" | CG Blair Academy | 2026 State #197 Nation NJ is a dependable and reliably productive combo guard who consistently stands out as a seamless offensive fit as a highly complementary piece who brings a lot to the table offensively for this Blair group. Showcasing much of his usual self being effective on and off the ball, Chatman put together an impressive performance that highlighted his ability to be a legitimately impactful at either guard spot— knocking down in rhythm looks from three point range as a movement shooter, creating real impact with his movement without the ball, finding open shooters and generating quality perimeter looks in different PnR actions and creating drive and kick threes, and even showcasing his athleticism on a number of strong finishes in transition.

Chatman had his downhill play style on full display, constantly putting pressure on the defense with aggressive drives. He lived in the paint, stacking touch after touch by attacking gaps and getting to his spots. Once he turned the corner, he finished consistently through contact and around length. He did a great job changing speeds to keep defenders off balance and create clean looks at the rim. When help collapsed, he made the right reads and found teammates for easy buckets. His ability to draw multiple defenders opened up the floor and kept the offense flowing. Overall, he played with pace, physicality, and real playmaking feel that translated to winning possessions.

Jaen Chatman Jaen Chatman Jaen Chatman 6'2" | CG Blair Academy | 2026 State #197 Nation NJ is a reliable and productive combo guard who routinely shines as a seamless offensive fit with the different things he’s able to make happen on the offensive side of the court, effective both on and off the ball. Chatman’s impressive offensive performance Sunday afternoon consisted of an efficient and diverse scoring attack mixed with his decisive and sound facilitation to get his teammates more involved— dynamic and in rhythm shot making off the bounce while also being just as effective as a spot up shooter, patience in letting plays develop as a ball handler in PnR action to make the right read(s), and even attacking closeouts and certain angles off the bounce that his shooting gravity opened up for him.
