Jakob Hartsock is a 6’8’’ 205 wing player who will play his freshman season for BYU this winter after returning from his mission to Las Vegas.
Coaches rave about his 3-point shooting touch, but this is really a small portion of his all-around game. He can put his back to the basket and is athletic enough to get up and down the court in transition.
In recent seasons, coach Dave Rose has lacked tall and athletic wing players that can shoot in order to spread out defenses and keep teams from keying in on primary scorers like Tyler Haws and Kyle Collinsworth.
