Incoming class of 2022 signee Jalen Hood-Schifino will arrive on campus in a few weeks but in the meantime, he is staying in the gym and workout out with some notable names.
On his instagram account, Hood-Schifino posted multiple images of him working out with Clippers forward Paul George and former Seton Hall standout guard Myles Powell.
He finished in the Rivals150 class of 2022 rankings as the No. 17 overall prospect in the class and a five-star recruit.
"Jalen has a presence about himself that makes you take notice. As a staff we loved watching him play. He displays great maturity and is a team-first guy who makes others around him better, a pure winner," IU head coach Mike Woodson said after Hood-Schifino signed with Indiana. "He has great size for his position and is a powerful guard that plays with force. Jalen will be able to help our ball club in a variety of ways. He's a guard that can score on all 3 levels, rebound the basketball, and has tremendous defensive awareness. Like the others, we are anxious for Jalen to get to campus."
Hood-Schifino fits exactly what Mike Woodson is trying to get from his point guards. A bigger, athletic guard who can play both with and without the ball.
"Watching a lot of film, watching Indiana a lot to see what they do," Hood-Schifino said. "He (Woodson) lets his players play. They play pretty fast and they are getting the ball out and everything. They have been defending the ball really well and that's where I can make an impact too."
Below is the full post from Hood-Schifino.
