About Justin
Expert Analysis
Jaelin Stovall | Prep Hoops Scout
Jaris brings exactly what a team needs, providing strong backline protection, rebounding, floor spacing, and reliable three-point shooting while also being able to switch defensively. He’s an athletic player with good awareness and quick bounce, capable of stretching the floor and impacting plays above the rim. He isn’t afraid to challenge anything at the basket, and his motor stays consistent throughout. Despite being young, he plays with patience, reads the game well, and rarely gets sped up, showing solid pace and control.
