was relentless in this game. He went to work routinely in the post and muscled up and through defenders for many buckets. His ability to get low and use his solid frame to bump defenders under the rim proved very difficult for opposing defenders to contain. His soft touch around the basket allowed him to convert many layups, which he converted through contact and around tough angles. His constant post attack required Woodbine to send many doubles in this game, which created advantages for Madrid’s offense, and Jevyn was great at finding his teammates out of these doubles and creating open threes. His interior passing was impressive as well; he was great at drawing two defenders and dumping off passes for easy looks around the rim. His activity on the glass was also very impactful. He brought down many offensive rebounds and converted them on putbacks. He also protected the glass on the other side of the ball with his ability to gain position under the basket. Jevyn was a force defensively as well. He blocked shots and displayed great versatility as a defender, showing an ability to switch onto any position.

dominated this game in the paint. For starters, he was pretty much unguardable in the post. His footwork, physicality, contact balance, and soft touch allowed him to convert many buckets in the paint. He routinely shoved defenders out of the way with his shoulders and powered up and through them for efficient looks. He muscled through defenders like it was nothing, and his touch never wavered in these scenarios. He was also great at getting to his floater down low after flattening opponents, and his relentless post attack allowed him to draw many fouls. He also got to the rim with his speed, fluidity, and ball handling. He displayed a very nice Euro step that created great angles for his layups, and he hit these layups at high speeds as well, and through heaps of contact, leading to multiple high-speed and-1 finishes. He was also great on the glass in this game on both sides of the floor. He converted many second-chance points on the offensive glass, and he was great at grabbing defensive boards and leading the break, where he showed his great playmaking vision. Jevyn threw many impressive skip passes in this game and made very difficult reads at high speeds. He did all of this while anchoring Madrid’s defense.

Severson put up huge numbers as a freshman for the 1A state champion Tigers, averaging 15.4 points, 8.0 rebounds and shooting 66.5% from the floor. He’s one of the most physically imposing players in the state’s 2028 class, a big, physical frame paired with finesse and explosive athleticism. Those same attributes have made him one of the most coveted tight end prospects in the country in the 2028 class, meaning his future likely lies on the gridiron.

Severson was recently named as one of the top tight end prospects in the country in the 2028 class, with dozens of high-major offers coming his way, or soon to come his way, on the gridiron. Those same attributes that make him a standout tight end – hands, physicality, athleticism, size – make him a nightmare matchup on the hardwood as well. He averaged 15.4 points and 8.0 rebounds on 67-50-66 shooting splits as a freshman for the state champion Tigers, and he could certainly average 25 + 12 as a sophomore for a team that has a lot of production to replace.

showed his versatility and tenacity throughout this event. Jevyn has an exceptionally unique offensive skill set that makes him a mismatch against many defenders. Jevyn is a monster in the post that combines a solid handle, great footwork, overwhelming size, and touch to carve out space and convert buckets at the rim. Jevyn is great at using his eyes and pass fakes to move off ball defenders, where he can attack open space and get to the cup, where he absorbs contact and finishes with his great contact balance and focus. Jevyn also uses his size and strength to create space for one-legged fadeaways that he hits at a high clip. This size and strength also makes him a great glass cleaner, especially on the offensive end. These tools convert to the defensive end as well, where Jevyn is a very engaged and versatile defender. Who uses his strength and hustle to lock down opposing big men and offer great help defense.
