Xavier offers 2018 three-star Talen Horton-Tucker

Class of 2018 small forward Talen Horton-Tucker has received an offer from the Xavier Musketeers.

Scott Burgess of Prep Hoops IL was the first to report.

Horton-Tucker attends the famed Simeon Academy in Chicago, where the likes of Jahlil Okafor, Jabari Parker and Derrick Rose got their start. Horton-Tucker is listed as a three-star on 247Sports and finds himself ranked fifth among all Illinois prospects in 2018. Leading that group is Morgan Park’s Ayo Dosunmu, followed by Tim Finke of Champaign, Orr’s Ty Mosely and Whitney Young’s Justin Boyd.
