Jaylen Alexander Adjusting to College Game at Adams State After Dominant High School Career
The 6-2 guard from Oxford High School (Alabama) was a 2025 Gatorade Player of the Year who averaged 17.6 PPG with 4.4 assists and 2.3 steals in his prep career, finishing with 2,444 points and a state championship. Now at Adams State in the 2025-26 season, Alexander is in a transition phase, averaging 8.1 PPG across 28 games while shooting .480 from the field. His elite ball-handling, court vision, and defensive instincts from high school remain his calling cards—he's a floor general with legitimate NBA-level athleticism who's still finding his rhythm at the college level.
