Big East Basketball: Analyzing each program’s 2020 recruiting class

Georgetown Hoyas: No. 5 Big East, No. 40 Nation

Dante Harris – 5’11 / 145 PG

If Dante Harris wears the number three jersey as he did at Lakeway Christian School, the fans at Capital One Arena will be under the impression they are having flashbacks of Allen Iverson. Harris is very quick and uses his quickness in conjunction with a cross over in order to get to the basket. When he does get to the basket he is able to make shots over bigger players, or stop and pop for an easy jumper. From rebound to a lay-up in traffic, it takes Harries four seconds and six dribbles.

Kobe Clark – 6’6 / 180 SG

247sports may have the Vashon shooting guard listed at 6’4, but he is at least 6’6 and very good at basketball. Already at Big East caliber, Vashon is able to penetrate in order to draw help and make the proper pass. His ability to catch and shoot from beyond the arc creates fewer problems for defenders than when he is handling the ball in a pick’n’roll.

Tyler Beard – 6’2 / 175 PG

As the primary ball-handler at Whitney Young High School, the three-star guard displayed the utmost confidence while taking the ball to the rim or taking a jumper off the bounce. Beard is a rim runner who finishes in the open court with dunks or sneaks in the back door along the baseline for an easy lay-up off the set offense.

Jamari Sibley – 6’8 / 200 PF

Sibley is bigger than he looks, but putting on a couple of pounds will help him in the Big East if he hopes to play either of the forward positions. The additional pounds should not prevent the four-star Oak Hill Academy Grad from being on the receiving end of all those alley-oops he is accustomed to. At 6’8 his athleticism allows him to rise up and get clear shots over defenders as well as dribble in the open court. If he stays around 200 pounds he has the handle and shot to play small forward in the Big East.
