What Was Said by Phenom Hoops:
“He’s a very long, wiry post prospect with an unbelievable amount of skill and poise. Gibson is already a high-level rebounder and rim-protector, but many folks fail to recognize his unique offensive abilities. He possesses great touch with either hand around the basket and can certainly play above the rim, but his ball-handling, vision, and overall level of craftiness (especially in transition) seem to get overlooked. Gibson operates within the team concept and looks to make the right play whenever possible. Next in his development process is simply continuing to add strength, as he possesses the necessary skill set to be an extremely high-level player at the next level.” – NC Top 80 in 2019
“Simply put, 6’11 Jaylon Gibson is oozing with upside and potential. He’s an athletic and agile hybrid forward. Gibson has the ability to score from all three levels including being an effective 3-point shooter. Already sporting excellent ball-handling skills, Gibson has terrific court vision and is such an unselfish player.” – Rick Lewis in 2019/ Game Recap
“Extremely long big man with strong inside-out scoring ability; he can rise above nearly any opponent and frequently gets blocks/steals by way of his long arms. Gibson has tremendous upside that he could reach sooner than later.” – Phenom Hoops in 2018
