Expert Analysis

Kevin Howell

Prep Hoops Scout

An explosive athlete with the ability to create and finish acrobatic attacks at the rim. Shows impressive body control in traffic and can adjust midair to complete difficult finishes. Defensively, he uses his length well and is very active in passing lanes. Quick-twitch reactions allow him to jump passing lanes and generate turnovers. He frequently turns defense into offense and finishes in transition with authority, often above the rim.

Prep Hoops Scout

A 6’2 guard who plays with real explosion. Jakai attacks the rim with force and gets downhill whenever he wants. His length helps him defend multiple spots, and he brings a strong presence keeping offenses out of the paint. Jakai pressures the ball, covers space, rotates to shut down driving lanes and makes life tough for scorers.

Jakai Woods Jakai Woods 6'2" | CG/PG Samuel Clemens | 2028 State TX is a 6’2 6’2 6'2" Friendswood | 2026 TX ” guard and this kid’s got dog in him. His athleticism jumps off the floor like truth — attacks the rim with bad intentions, guards multiple spots, changes pace through pure explosion. The grind shows offensively. Jab steps, quick counters, body control that creates highlights. Produced a 180-baseline filthy dunk but here’s what separates Woods from the pack — that motor never stops. Kid competes every single possession. Diving for loose balls. Defending with pride. Truth is with his strength, that energy, and an all-around game that don’t lie, Jakai’s got the tools to be one of the premier dogs in Texas’s 2028 class.
