Terrence Shannon Jr. headlines list of targets for Illinois in 2019

He’s seen his name blow up in the past few weeks AFTER graduating high school. A Chicago native and Lincoln Park High School alum, Terrence Shannon Jr. reclassified from the 2018 class to the 2019 class where he will take a prep year at Woodstock Academy in Connecticut.

According to 247Sports.com, Shannon Jr. is the No. 79 player in the class of 2019. At 6-foot-6, 190 pounds, he could find himself filling right into the perimeter roles that guys like Aaron Jordan, Tevian Jones and Kipper Nichols do for the Orange and Blue.
