The Syracuse Orange men's basketball staff have been after top prospects in the classes of 2016 and 2017. One of those targets is 2017 4-star forward Jordan Tucker, of White Plains, NY.
During the school year, Jordan plays for Archbishop Stepinac. In the summer, he runs with the 17U New York Lightning in the Nike EYBL.
Tucker holds offers from Arizona, Connecticut, Dayton, Detroit, Fordham, Manhattan, Maryland, Oklahoma, Providence, Seton Hall, St. John's, Syracuse, Villanova and Xavier. Indiana, Kansas, Miami (FL), North Carolina and Virginia have also showed interest, according to a source.
The 6-8/200 forward was supposed to visit Syracuse in October for Orange Madness, but was a late scratch due to a transportation issue.
