    Jalen Hill, the 6-foot-6 small forward from the Las Vegas Prospects and Clark (NV) High School, will announce his college choice Thursday, a source told ZAGSBLOG. 

    Hill has visited Oklahoma and TCU, with the Sooners the favorite in the recruitment.

    Hill averaged 15.9 points and 5.4 rebounds last season at Clark High School.

    “I’m more of a slasher, but I feel I can score on all three levels,” Hill told the Las Vegas Sun. “Mid-range, 3-point shots, close range around the rim. I feel like I can do a little of everything. Over the last couple years I’ve put a lot into my jump shot and ball-handling. I also have more confidence on the court; I’ve gained a lot of confidence the last couple years. Playing with more confidence and believing in myself more has let my overall game come out.”
