Jalen Haralson flashed star-level scoring for Notre Dame before an ankle issue and portal exit changed the picture
In the 2025-26 season, Jalen Haralson averaged 16.2 points, 4.0 rebounds and 2.6 assists for Notre Dame while shooting 51.5% from the field, showing a big, versatile guard who can get downhill, score in bunches and handle real offensive load[3][5]. The knock is the outside shot and turnover burden, but the appeal is clear: he was Notre Dame’s highest-rated recruit in the modern era and looked like a tough, high-usage piece until a sprained ankle briefly sidelined him and he later entered the transfer portal[2][8][10].
