a young guard with pedigree, size, and a shot that’s already flashing
In the 2025-26 season, Jaden Battle has given Roberts Wesleyan a compact, perimeter-first guard who can score in bursts and has already shown touch from three, including a 6-point outing against Kent State and a strong early 75.0% mark from deep on NCAA DII stat boards. He comes from Long Island Lutheran and MacDuffie Prep, which is a pretty sturdy basketball résumé, and his profile suggests a high-IQ role player with upside rather than a ball-dominant creator. If your team wants a steady guard who can space the floor and grow into more, he’s worth a look.
