Top 5 senior Jaden Hardy opts out of remaining high school basketball season
Posted Jan 9, 2021
Jaden Hardy is officially done with high school basketball. The top shooting guard and No. 3 overall prospect in the SI99 was scheduled to play in The Battle Basketball Showcase this weekend in Texas, but has opted out and will shut it down for the year. The announcement doesn’t come as a total surprise for high school basketball’s most dynamic scorer.
