About J’Lon
Expert Analysis
Ari Rosenfeld | Prep Hoops Scout
Putting together a dynamic individual effort despite a narrow loss to St. John’s (DC), Lyons was electric on both ends throughout the contest. Lyons picked his spots, coming out as a facilitator and letting things come to him in a perfect shooting first half. He went into takeover mode during multiple second half stretches, using his speed, potent handle, and emerging shotmaking ability to score a game-high 24 points on 9-for-13 shooting. Even while sharing lead ballhandling duties, Lyons stands out with his feel as a playmaker (6 assists) and ability to keep the offense on schedule. He also played tenacious on-ball defense while serving as a ballhawk in the open floor en route to 5 steals, including a pair of pick-six dunks. Lyons continues to make a case as the top prospect in his class across the DMV.
