James E Hawkins III '24 Recruiting Profile

My goal is to play College basketball and eventually evolve into playing professionally. Ultimately I want to play at a college that is the best situation for me and I am willing to consider all opportunities. I want to play for a team that is focused on and has a winning culture with an emphasis on character and integrity first.

Let me tell you a little bit about myself. I am a hard worker and very schedule oriented person. I am a leader not only on the court but in my school and community as well. I also coach youth basketball in my free time.

On the court, I am a very versatile player who is a devoted and motivated defender who loves to guard the best perimeter player on the opposing team. As a playmaker, I enjoy delivering crisp outlet passes and running the fastbreak to allow teammates to get to the rim for easy layups or driving and kicking to the open shooter. I can score on all three levels in the paint,mid range and three. I am a shorter player but I box out well which helps me grab many rebounds. I take pride in understanding all team concepts and being an extension of the coach on the court for my teammates. I am a true student of the game
