Rafiq "RJ" Heigler Jr. '26 Recruiting Profile

Dear Coaches, my collegiate goal is to be a contributor to winning on any team. What makes me a good candidate for your team is the versatility I can bring as a player. I can fit any play style because if you need me to take on a scoring role, I can do that. If you need me to be more of a playmaker and set the table, I can do that. If you need me to pick up full court and be a pesky on-ball defender, I can do that. I bring all of these skills together and can adapt to various play styles to benefit the team. What makes me different from other recruits is my work ethic on and off the court. Beyond the X and O’s on the court, I am always actively looking to improve my knowledge of the game and consistently looking to be a smarter player. If you find someone more athletic than me, nobody on the floor will have more heart and grit than me, and this is because when I step on the court I’m going to be a dog for every second of the game. You combine my mind, talent and heart for the game, and I know I will bring value to any team I’m a part of.
