WATCH: Ian Jackson drops 28, scores game-winner

North Carolina commit Ian Jackson is in the middle of an impressive senior season before he arrives in Chapel Hill later this year. As a five-star prospect in the 2024 recruiting class, Jackson is one of three players committed to the Tar Heels.

While playing in the Overtime Elite League, Jackson is proving worthy of that five-star status. And on Friday, he showcased his ability once again.

Jackson scored 28 points and had the game-winning shot as Jelly Fam snapped a three-game losing streak and beat Rolling Loud 84-81. Check out a video of Jackson scoring that game-winning bucket below:

Jackson also added 9 rebounds and 4 steals in the win for Jelly Fam.

Since committing to North Carolina in early 2023, Jackson has taken his game to another level, doing so in the Overtime Elite League. He will be a key to future success for Hubert Davis’ team with that 2024 class.
