John Oladipo '24 Recruiting Profile

When I first picked up a basketball I knew I wanted to move on and start a journey. My brother inspired me into playing the game I love, so I decided to play at the age of six. What makes me a good candidate is my ability to catch and shoot, being able to knock down open shots. Also my ability to attack the rim athletically and finish strong. Even if we are down I’m the one to say “keep your head up, we still in this” and cheering on my teammates when needed. I am a 3 level scorer who is able to knock down long range shots which gives me the ability to effect the game at a high level. Some others in my class may just worry about scoring but the game is more about scoring. You need a player who will be effective on both sides. What makes me different from the others is that I am a student athlete, when it comes to my school work I take it serious and try to the best of my ability.
