SG Jordan Sibert (Atlanta Hawks)

Rivals.com Basketball Recruiting - Top underclassmen from AAU Nationals (free)

Smooth, steady and silent. Those three terms are perfect for describing the 6-foot-3 guard. Sibert was calm and collected at all times and scored with great efficiency and poise despite a long line of head coaches on the sidelines - a rarity on the circuit during the last couple of days of the evaluation period. Sibert doesn't need a high number of shots to put points on the board. He doesn't force the issue and seems to always make the right plays. It doesn't come as a big surprise that so many high-majors are lining up to get him.

will hopefully decide after this season.
I hope he doesn't wait that long because I really would like to see him be a Buckeye. I have to believe that with all the offers we have out there for SG's that one of them will probably pull the trigger before the end of the season JMO

Evaluation
July, 2008: This kid was a pleasant surprise this week. Sibert has a good body and is super athletic. He showed great stamina and always makes his presence felt when he is on the floor. He plays hard and above the rim, providing highlights in transition -- he went 360 with no problem on a breakaway Tuesday. Sibert sprints the wing in transition. He can get to the rim and finish through contact. With a quick first step, he drives hard to his right to score. Sibert has a good pull-up jumper with high release and elevation and is a good, not great 3-point shooter off the catch or dribble. He seems to be a bit streaky. He lacks shot preparation but has good form which causes his shot to be flat on the release because he is upright when he receives the ball. Sibert is a good rebounder both ends and must be blocked out to prevent tip dunks. He is a good ball handler but needs to work on going left as he prepares for the college level. A good defender, he benefits from being such a great athlete. He has the potential to defend positions 1-3 with his active hands and good lateral foot speed. He needs to get stronger to handle physical college play. His best playing days are ahead of his as his game continues to develop. Sibert is one to keep a close eye on.

This article has him considering Xavier, Cincinnati, Tennessee, and the Buckeyes.
