    Tucker is the second high-profile talent to leave Stepinac this offseason. Last month, Class of 2018 forward Aundre Hyatt left the school for the Charlottesville (VA) Miller School.

    “As many have heard, the Tucker family has relocated to Georgia and Jordan will attend Wheeler for his senior year,” Stepinac coach Pat Massaroni told SNY.tv. “We at Stepinac thank Jordan for all his efforts and accomplishments and wish him the best on and off the court in the future.”

    Also this summer, New York native Sid Wilson announced he was reclassing to the Class of 2018 and transferring to prep power Brewster (N.H.) Academy from St. Raymond’s in The Bronx.

    The 6-foot-7 Tucker runs with the NY Rens on the Nike EYBL circuit and helped them reach the quarterfinals of the Peach Jam. He holds offers from numerous high-major schools, including Syracuse, UConn, Arizona and Maryland.
