UNLV's Intense 6'7" Swingman with McDonald's All-American Pedigree
Jelan Kendrick, a 6'7" swingman for UNLV, brings elite intensity and a McDonald's All-American pedigree from Wheeler High School, differentiating himself with a rare blend of size, defensive versatility (averaging 2.0 blocks per game in international play), and clutch scoring (6.4 PPG in 2023-24). Unlike typical guards, his 21.0 PPG international peak and 3-block game against Southern Utah reveal a high-intensity, physical style that thrives in transition and half-court defense. With no major injury history and a personality defined by relentless drive, he is a perfect fit for teams needing a versatile, high-energy two-way player who elevates intensity without sacrificing ball control.
