Jontae Turpin Jr
About Jontae
Expert Analysis
Donald Tatum | Prep Hoops Scout
Turpin put on the performance of the day by scoring 41 points against one of the toughest teams in the state. His showing was epic, and everyone in the gym witnessed an absolute spectacle that will be talked about for years to come. Turpin has long been viewed as an intriguing talent, and on this day, all the hard work, and every question I previously had, was answered.
His ability to score is top tier, and with this performance, he has to be considered one of the purest scorers in the state. He hit the three ball, knocked down mid-range shots, finished difficult attempts at the rim, and went 14-for-16 from the free-throw line. He did it all with a stoic, poker-faced composure that showed he is one of the best.
Turpin is visibly leaner, quicker, and his on-court leadership stood out as well. His development has truly come full circle. His night ended with an offer to play college basketball at the next level. The man of the hour, and the player to watch is Mr. Turpin, Louisiana’s own baby-faced assassin.
