Ian Jackson Dominates Top Prep School

Jackson went off again!

UNC commit Ian Jackson just dominated one of the best prep schools in the country. He plays for Our Savior Lutheran, a school competing under the Overtime Elite brand. The New York squad also features Syracuse commit Elijah Moore.

Jackson Shines

In this game, Jackson finished with 32 points and grabbed 8 rebounds. In the video above, you can see him dominate all over the court. Jackson is an elite scorer and can do it from all three levels. He blew past defenders for layups, threw down a huge dunk, and was hitting both set and off-the-dribble threes. Facing top competition, Jackson shines brighter.

Prolific Prep features the number one player in the 2025 class, AJ Dybantsa, as well as Tyran Stokes, the number one player in 2026. Jackson is dominant, and no one from a loaded roster could guard him. Our Savior Lutheran won the game 100-79.

This summer, he scored 45 points and won MVP of the ‘Slam! Classic’ against multiple 5-stars.

Coming to Chapel Hill

Jackson is expected to sign his National Letter of Intent on Saturday. Ranked 10th in the 2024 class, he will give the Tar Heels instant offense. Alongside Drake Powell and James Brown, they make up one of the highest-rated classes UNC has ever had.

North Carolina is getting a great talent next season!
