About Prince
Expert Analysis
Steve Quattrocchi | Prep Hoops Scout
Thomas is not that far behind Rondo in the rankings and you could make a case for Prince to be number one right now and in the long term. With his length and athleticism, Thomas has unreal upside at this age and with his skill set, colleges will be lining up to offer him in the near future.

The younger brother of St. X Junior Jordan Jackson, Prince is highly skilled already and has the same type of length and athleticism that his older brother possesses. Thomas plays with a good motor and can do a lot of things athletically that others in this class cannot do yet. Long term, Prince is probably my favorite in this class and he has all the tools to be an elite recruit, nationally.

Prince was by far the most outstanding player at the Kentucky Freshman Showcase. Simply put, there wasn’t much anyone in the building could do to stop him once he got too deep in the paint. He punched every dunking opportunity he got and also showcased some shooting potential from long distance. If he can find a way to unleash that dog within him at all times while in between the lines, Prince could have a legit case for the top 2030 prospect in Kentucky.

, Thomas has the same wiry frame as Jackson but has the skill set of a wing or guard already. With the explosiveness that Prince has, he can live above the rim on both ends. He’s a big time name to track in the 2030 class.

, Prince has shown flashes of greatness. He stepped into a big role for DuBois this season and exceeded expectations given that he’s yet to enroll in high school. Up to at least 6’6″ now, Prince has the length necessary to control the boards and protect the rim. His advanced level of ball handling, however, equipped with a deceiving level of shiftiness, is what sets his game apart.

Up to 6’6″ now, Prince has the intangibles to be a scholarship-level prospect in the future. He played big minutes for a Dubois squad that made its first ever appearance in the 6th Region tournament. His long wiry frame and ability to get off the ground quick allowed him to alter shots at the rim. He made even more of an impact as a defensive threat at the top of the Lions’ zone. After tying with senior Kenyon Sykes for a team-high in RPG (4.8) throughout the postseason, expect to hear much more of Prince as a freshman next season.
