If I have that much talent I would of went to st johns, represent my state, but North Carolina gonna get him prime time games on tv, great choice, rooting for that brotha, coming from a Hoyas fan
Yes sir! I'm a NC Native and i still live here, about an hour and a half from Chapel Hill. I've been a die hard Heel fan my whole life and we are so excited to have this guy rocking that beautiful Carolina Blue! Welcome to UNC Young Man!!!
Best New York City Hooper EVER!?......glad that you included the question mark. I'm thinking the great Lew Alcindor, he was 6'6" in the first grade and the hype was underway. Alcindor went on to lead UCLA to three national championships.
I've seen him enough to say he is definitely not the greatest high school player to come out of NYC but now if talking last 20 or 25 years, You can make the argument for that. Definitely the most athletic guard along with Hami Daillo I've seen come out of NYC. In my opinion I think Lenny Cooke was the best player to come out of NYC since 2000 and Captain Jack is not too far behind. Love that he is going to UNC starting the trend of NYC guys going there again like the Dean Smith days
@@Moonthre The guy earlier said that Ian Jackson was the best NYC High School player of the last 25 years. I'm not sure of that. Lance Stephenson of Brooklyn was a fantastic high school player.
@@philb.1502 It’s hard to say any player is the best out of NYC. If this kids the he’s probably the best disciplined. As far as Lance I knew some guys on the Lincoln team who were more talented than Lance, but the difference maker was the ego and discipline.
Glad to see we got another hooper from NYC getting recognition, I just hope he stay outta trouble & hang around people who have his mindset. We lost too many Bronx players getting recognized on social media all because someone doesn’t wanna see the next person shine so I hope he be on point living in the X‼️
@@francoismerieux8770 the Bronx is full of envy & hate so if you on a right path plus get social media recognition someone who don’t got shit going for themselves is gonna make you a target & it’s not like one person a whole group will envy you even if you don’t know them.
@@goodymob9638everyone knows that . But he was only about 3 months when he left nyc. MJ is from NC. That man don’t remember one thing from being in New York. Even his movie “AIR” made it clear he from Wilmington NC, they didn’t mention New York once
Ian " Captain Jack" Jackson - don't let these hyped up headlines get in your head....keep doing you....focused, driven, grinding and humble. DO that and not only will your game speak for itself but all of us Bronx bred will have your back forever. Salute.
i hope he has good positive people around him because alot of people are going to be on his jock. if things go south watch out. have a backup plan young brother and best to you!
Welcome to the southern part of heaven king 👑 Can’t tell y’all how hype I am to see some native nyc cats in Carolina blue..I’m from Queens, there ain’t too many of us in Chapel. You’re gonna love it tho, graduated 2020 and I miss it daily. Carolina family is the real deal. Always a #GDTBATH
Rooting for you young man. Keep those grades up and your brain thinking. You can't play basketball forever but if your smart enough you can make enough money for the rest of your life
I love these stories, but as a ex- semipro ball player from NYC, I would love to hear more young black males prosper academically. A black kid from the hood excel in science, math, engineering, technology or graduate early. The same energy used to practice ball can be used to read, write, and study.......Its the same dedication. Another amazing black ball player from an impoverished neighborhood..... that story been played on repeat since b4 I was all-city.
And Felipe Lopez played a grand total of four seasons in the NBA😏!! The rest of his career was in overseas backwater leagues(not even in Europe).. Hopefully this kid has a much better pro career than Felipe
It would be nice if stayed at UNC for all four years but the NBA will come a calling after the first year. I want him to stay at UNC at least 3 years. Yes, he could get injured but if he decides to stay at Carolina for 3 years he WILL be ready for the Big Time because UNC has a plethora of great players who are now UNC Coaches! Thanks young man for your commitment. The fans at UNC are some, if not the best, supporters of new recruits and are very loyal to the Best College in the Nation! Can't wait to see you play!
Ferdinand Lewis Alcindor was a pretty decent NYC hooper who played for the now defunct Power Memorial Academy. He would later be a contributor to The Bruins at a college in Los Angeles. Later in life he had stints for the Milwaukee Bucks and the Los Angeles Lakers. At some point he changed his name to Kareem Abdul Jabbar, won every individual award, every team award, multiple championships etc. I guess Jabbar would be the second best hooper from NYC???
But Itz A Pleasure Too See A Great NYC High Schooler Who Played High School Ball In NYC And Have Success Bcz Usually They Play High School Ball In Jersey Or Some Prep School Outta State Somewhere !!! SALUTE !!!
Hooping in the hood, wearing that girly boy hair, glossing on the internet-he needs to move asap and move in with some white family in NC, or he won't even make to the acc championship.
Ever? Kareem, Dr J, Donovan Mitchell, Kenny Anderson, Mullin, Mark Jackson, Jordan, Felipe Lopez, Shamgodd, Khalid AL amin, pearl Washington, Kenny The jet Smith, Whitehead, Kemba, ... bro NYC is stacked
@@mariodediccio1099 Skip to my Lou... #legend I remember when #Rafer went to Fresno State, we couldn't believe it.. he made it out, and every NY hooper, was happy for him 🏀🙌🏽💯 * did I forget Melo, probably bcuz I'm slightly bias 😉🍊🏆 (he's my guy)
@@Jabatu1 Connie Hawkins might have the longest arms of any post player in history🦒. He could up & under you, then finger roll from the 3pt line 🤣💥🏀.. J1, thanks bcuz I definitely enjoyed his highlights. He tore the post up ✂️.. his footwork was a nasty 🤘🏿
Best Wishes To "Captain Jack." He is the future. His mentor in the orange hoodie looks familiar too. I know I played ball with him back in the day. Lol Salute NYC ballers. Throw the Xs up. Mount Vernon's in the building too. Know Dat. 914
Most of the clips are layups and dunks. I want to see more jump shots and pull ups and catch & shoot jumpers in order to know what we're really looking at.
Basketball talent is mostly coming Dallas, Houston, Los Angeles, Chicago and Atlanta. Texas, California and Florida is dominating basketball now. New York basketball has been garbage for many years now. I forgot about DC good too
NYC has had alot ballers to say this kid is the best let's wait and see. From Sébastien Telfair; Kenny Anderson; Mark Jackson; Stephon Marbary; Chris Mullin; Charles jones; God Shamgod; Benard King; Jamal Mashburn; Dr Jay Julius Irving; Kareem Abdul Jabar; Rod Strickland
play pick up games in summer where the pros at that get serious - full court - what - he don't think so? garnett said he stopped with the fries and burgers upon the rigor of nba schedule . walking up 14 or more flights of stairs ( then take elevator down ) . did nba ban high school picks?
I love this kid but the king brothers, marbury, Hawkins, Kenny Anderson, rod strickland, bob cousy Al Harrington, KAREEM and I could keep going but once you say mr jabber name it rodent make any sense but this kid is the future hopefully he could take the number 1 spot and bring the superstar element back to nyc hoopers
That's about as high as a bar gets, given that Kareem came from NYC. Looks like he has the tools to wind up right there with the best perimeter players from the area. Stephon Marbury was my favorite.
He's one of our own. Rooting for the kid to do great things in UNC and beyond! Make NYC proud, Ian!
If I have that much talent I would of went to st johns, represent my state, but North Carolina gonna get him prime time games on tv, great choice, rooting for that brotha, coming from a Hoyas fan

Just saved me a whole lot of typing.
Facts lmao wtf is up with this era all this tech and still getting shit wrong this kid probably not even top 20 😂
I can name at least 30 NY players that were way better than this kid
Setting this kid up for failure with titles like this
6'6 in the first grade what?
Hope he stays focused and don’t get distracted. Looks like he has a incredibly high ceiling. Keep pushing young man.
Can't wait to see him that Carolina blue!
gonna be scary
Yessir!
Yes!! He made a perfect choice!!
I've seen him enough to say he is definitely not the greatest high school player to come out of NYC but now if talking last 20 or 25 years, You can make the argument for that.

Better High School player than Lance Stephenson??
Tons of better players. It’s a game of chance and opportunity.

He’ll go from a top 5 pick to late first round at UNC.

@@XMON888he would make making less money. You’re argument is a stupid one lol
Wowww best NY baller ever. I saw this hype many times. There is a difference between. Hype and Legend.
Rooting for you young man. Keep those grades up and your brain thinking. You can't play basketball forever but if your smart enough you can make enough money for the rest of your life
Best ever? Lew Aldindor, Dr J, Starbury, Kenny Anderson, Lenny Cook, and the list goes on...best ever is hard to say
Looking forward to watching you play in Chapel Hill , and then the NBA
Capt Jack, I'm watching you from a distance keep your focus and your eye on the prize!
God bless young brother. Stay focused and get out.
Starbury? Skip to my loooooooou? Jelly fam? Alimo?
Thanks 🙏🏽 for showing tc5 😢we miss him so much in Boston rip bro
This is dope for real he put his mind in the right place its easy to get in trouble 💯

Chapel Thrill!
UNC!!
he is special god bless him
Currently #2 in ESPN 100 for Juniors. Could he be the first "HS player of the year" from NYC (next year) since Felipe Lopez 1994?!
And Felipe Lopez played a grand total of four seasons in the NBA😏!!
The rest of his career was in overseas backwater leagues(not even in Europe)..
Hopefully this kid has a much better pro career than Felipe
@@BLACK_MikeHammer yeah Felipe couldn't get it going when everyone was his size in the league.
I hope he makes it 💪🏾
Unc Has A History Of Getting Those Great Guards From The New York Area. 💪Ready To See Him Wearing Carolina Blue
Like this guy. Saw a micd up video. He has fun on the court. Good for the game.

I can't remember the last time a player from the Bronx went to NC besides Brian Reese..shout out to Castle Hill projects.

Better than Alcindor or Manigault?? Doubt it!

Ofc
Can't wait until he comes to UNC
NYC STANDUP!

HOLD IT DOWN FOR NYC
This 2024 UNC recruiting class is insane, gonna be dominant for sure 👣👣👣
Make the knicks better my guy I’m from queens but I’m rooting fa you to go first round NBA just gimmie one or two titles in UNC
Him and Elliot gonna ball
Imagine that a young man from N.Y.C giving props to a Canadian 🇨🇦 🏀 Basketball player amazing....!
Steph was getting bigger and more media and we didn't have the internet yet. Marbury best NYC all day
By the way the greatest high school big guard to come out of NYC is Albert King class of 1977 Fort Hamiliton
HEEL YEAH BABY! WELCOME HOME CAP"T JACK!!!!
Welcome to the Tarheels...😎😊😊🏀🏀🏀🔥🔥🔥💯
The Boogie Down, and Hayes, no joke. Only wished he were hooping for Cardinal Spellman.
Best Wishes To "Captain Jack." He is the future. His mentor in the orange hoodie looks familiar too. I know I played ball with him back in the day. Lol Salute NYC ballers. Throw the Xs up. Mount Vernon's in the building too. Know Dat. 914
This Carolina kids can dominate college games
So skeptical to see the play soon
Welcome to my squad, UNC!
Got the young man achieves his goals BUT there will never be a NYC hooper better than Lew Alcindor.
Most of the clips are layups and dunks. I want to see more jump shots and pull ups and catch & shoot jumpers in order to know what we're really looking at.
HE GON BE A STAR ONE DAY!!
for sure
Love this young man...GO HEELS
Bx for the win... let's go young king!
Being a D1 hooper I know that SGA and Ja Morant type players are a dime a dozen. It takes the right dedication and mindset to truly be special.
I think he has that.
Basketball talent is mostly coming Dallas, Houston, Los Angeles, Chicago and Atlanta. Texas, California and Florida is dominating basketball now. New York basketball has been garbage for many years now. I forgot about DC good too
Amazing video
The NY to UNC pipeline is back!
So glad he chose UNC.
Blessings captain Jack hopefully you end up with new york Knicks or Brooklyn nets
Best nyc hooper ever is crazy title
It’s for clicks and views not to be taken too personally
Is it true that new york city Gaurds are gritty but generally shooting is not their strength?
also, these young brothers need to be academically inclined as they are athletically.
What school ever do for anybody
BIG BRONX NEW YORK CITY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Best hoopers come out Midwest
ALL FACTS....But good luck kid!
Hopefully he does good at North Carolina
