Jackson McAndrew has been phenomenal during his first three games at the Nike Peach Jam so far. The 6’8 sniper continues to showcase why he is one of the most underrated prospects in the country. Some scouts are starting to classify McAndrew as the best shooter in the whole country after some lights out shooting performances.

He has led Howard Pulley to a 3-0 start and he looks to continue that success as the week goes along. McAndrew is currently averaging 21 points per game, which puts him at #4 in scoring in the PIT tournament.

McAndrew started off hot in his first game at the Nike Peach Jam. He finished his first game with 31 points, 7 rebounds, 2 blocks and McAndrew also knocked down four threes and he ended up shooting 11-19 from the field. On3, a recruiting platform, named McAndrew the MVP of day one at the Nike Peach Jam (via On3.com).

McAndrew continued his success on day two, as he finished with 23 points on 6-9 shooting from the three point line. His 23 points helped lead Howard Pulley to a 82-68 win over The Skill Factory.

On day three, McAndrew slowed down a little on the scoring but he still made a huge impact finishing with a double-double in the win for Howard Pulley. In game three McAndrew had 11 points, 12 rebounds, and 2 blocks.

Howard Pulley and Jackson McAndrew are off to a hot start so far on the biggest stage of high school basketball. Will their success continue or will it slow down as the week goes along?
