Let's Go Places on the Recruiting Trail: Jaylen Hoard, Wesleyan Christian

Jaylen Hoard's basketball journey spans two continents. After spending most of his life in France, the 6-foot-8 forward relocated to the United States and became a star at Wesleyan Christian Academy near Greensboro, North Carolina.

Ranked among the top 30 prospects in the 2018 class, Hoard excels both in the post and on the perimeter. His decision to commit to Wake Forest was influenced by coach Danny Manning's recruiting approach and the school's proximity to his academy. Hoard brings a versatile international game to Tobacco Road.
