I got to see the other SMAC 17 U group immediately after on the same court at 9 AM as they played a fun back and forth game against Grand Park Premier
White. Hackett had a nice game with a handful of wing 3-pointers with his high release point. On an undersized team, Hackett had to guard opposing bigs and while he gave up some easy layups, I was encouraged by how hard he fought to front the post and box out for his team. Shot-making wing athlete who had a strong season for Triway and is a surefire small college target.
I caught Triway at the Battle at the Berkey and was impressed with how Hackett moved for his size. In the open court Hackett covers a lot of ground and has the length to become an impact defender down the road. In the game I caught, Hackett had a couple nice drive and scores at the rim and looks like a player who could still make a major jump prior to his senior season. A name regional small college programs will want to know this summer.
