Dillon Walker '27 Recruiting Profile

Basketball has been my passion for as long as I can remember. It’s more than just a game to me—it’s a way of life. At 6’2” and 16 years old, I’ve worked hard to build a versatile game. I’m quick on my feet, I can handle the ball under pressure, and I’m comfortable both shooting and driving. My biggest goal is to continue growing as a player, and I’m determined to take my game to the next level by playing college basketball.

In my high school career so far, I’ve learned a lot about what it takes to succeed. I started on the frosh team my freshman year, and by my sophomore year, I earned a spot on the JV team. That season, we went undefeated and won the league title. I’ve had the chance to develop not just my skills but also my leadership and teamwork abilities. Whether it’s pushing the tempo or making that crucial defensive stop, I’ve learned to bring energy and focus to everything I do on the court.

I also believe that being a student-athlete is about more than just basketball. I maintain a 3.8 GPA, and I take pride in my academics. Balancing school and sports has taught me how to manage my time and stay disciplined. I’ve learned to stay focused under pressure, whether it’s on a test or during a crucial moment in a game.

I love the challenge that comes with being a basketball player and a student. I’m looking for an opportunity to bring my skills, energy, and work ethic to a college program that values not just talent but hard work and teamwork. I want to keep learning, growing, and doing everything I can to help my team win.

Thank you for taking the time to consider me. I would love the chance to contribute to your program and continue to grow as a player and person.
