One of the nation’s top uncommitted guards in the 2027 class, Hunter is a high level scorer who has already impressed for the Hawks this fall. He is a versatile offensive threat who can play with or without the basketball, consistently creating his own scoring opportunities off the dribble. Hunter is a reliable perimeter shot maker, both off the catch and off the bounce, and has the athleticism to attack the rim and finish in the paint. With his ability to score at multiple levels and his good feel for the game, Hunter is one of the premier offensive prospects in the class.

Not sure there’s a better scorer in MD/DC/VA than Hunter and time and time again, he’s proven that he cannot only put up a crooked number anytime he takes the floor, but also that his repertoire continues to expand. There was a narrative heading into the spring that he was a non-factor from beyond the arc. For those that put the hours in the gym and evaluate in different environments, it’s safe to say he’s taken significant strides in this aspect to the point where defenders can’t go under screens and bigs shouldn’t be suggested to play drop coverage in ball screens. The lead guard’s burst is one of the best you’ll see in the national class and because of that, he lives in the paint/at the rim for the majority of games. He can contort his body in various ways while maintaining soft touch on floaters, but you’re starting to see the floor vision and processing for others surface more with each viewing.

Highland’s 4-0 weekend was one of the main storylines coming out of the event and there wasn’t a greater driving force behind the undefeated showing than the dynamic play of Hunter in the backcourt. Finishing his career at Highland after spending last year at Hargrave Military Academy, Hunter was up to his usual tricks while showcasing his blazing speed and shifty ball skills on his way to touching the paint seemingly whenever he wanted. Things look to be slowing down for him as a decisionmaker, continuing a trend that started over the summer. Most notably, Hunter is turning over a new leaf as a perimeter threat, hunting jumpers with a purpose both off the catch and in the pullup game. There aren’t many more dynamic downhill threats in the country, presenting Hunter with some high-level upside outcomes if he can continue rounding out the finer points of his game.

-Honestly think he may have been the most talented player in attendance as Hunter continues to prove that he’s one of the most difficult players to guard in the area with the ball in his hands. Hunter has an elite first step that he uses to generate paint touches to score or assist a teammate, is shooting the ball with much better balance off the dribble, and has really taken some big strides with his shot IQ/efficiency in new threads with Highland. Hunter’s speed and scoring craft in transition make him one of the most dangerous threats to score as he should continue to dominate the EPL as one of the area’s best point guards.

Hunter is a high scoring guard who can create his own offense and put points on the board at multiple levels. He is a reliable shot maker, has a good feel for the game and is comfortable creating off the dribble. An above average athlete, Hunter can get into the paint and finish effectively around the rim. Expect him to have a big senior season for the Hawks.

Hunter was nothing short of fantastic for Highland who went undefeated on the weekend, and he’s looking like one of the top guards in the DMV and a high major prospect coaches should get involved with. He was lights out as he put up big numbers throughout the day showing his speed in transition and burst in the half court to get by defenders. He shot the ball well when defenders went under or backed off him, he finished well at the rim and in the midrange, he drew contact well and got to the line often, and he made plays for others when the defense started to collapse on him.

Switching over to Team Loaded 17U, Hunter showed flashes as a premier scorer in Rock Hill last week. He had the two highest-scoring outings for Team Loaded, putting up 21 points on 6-13 FG against ASAK and 20 points on 8-15 FG against Anthony Edwards Five. Jordan was very impressive in that Thursday opener, consistently getting downhill with his quickness and handle while also keeping defenders off balance with a capable jumper off the dribble. Hunter was one of the fastest players in the open floor that I saw all week long, which made him a threat not only in the half-court but in transition.

It wasn’t the best weekend for Loaded VA 17s, but that doesn’t mean it wasn’t a productive weekend for individual prospects. There were two prospects on the squad who seemed to have a positive impact and one was Hunter. He had put together an impressive 3SSB season leading up to this point, but some additions to the roster provided some shakeup to the approach as a team. In his opportunities in transition, playing in space or as the shot clock was winding down, Hunter put his head down and knifed his way to the rim with regularity as he usually does. He left Rock Hill averaging 13.7PPG as Loaded went 1-3 to end their summer.

One of the top scorer’s in the class, Hunter aveaged 18.5 points per game during July for Team Loaded on the adidas 3SSB circuit. He is an effective scorer both on and off the ball. A reliable shot maker off the bounce and on the catch, with the ability to create his own offense, Hunter continues to improve as a ball handler. An above average athlete who can finish in the paint, Hunter us certainly a prosepct that continues to trend up.

Jordan is among the top players in Virginia and it’s easy to see why with his natural scoring abilities and ability to take over a game at any given moment. He transferred to the Highland School and will be key to their success moving forward as one of the lead guards. This weekend in Texas, he put on a scoring clinic where he was able to score in a variety of ways. Jordan averaged 21.8 PPG, 4.2 RPG, and 2.6 APG and has offers and interest from tons of high-level Division 1 programs, and he will look to boost his recruitment once again this weekend at the 3SSB Finals in Rock Hill, SC.
