Four-star wing Jaiden Glover poised to announce Tuesday

By ADAM ZAGORIA

Jaiden Glover, the the 6-foot-6, 195-pound four-star wing from The Patrick School (N.J.) and the Riverside Hawks, will announce his college commitment at 8 p.m. on Tuesday.

The New York Post first reported the date.

Glover visited St. John’s last week and St. Joe’s before that but Rick Pitino and the Red Storm are widely expected to land the dynamic wing.

“I really like them, I like how they play,” he told ZAGSBLOG earlier this summer. “I want to see what the culture is like with Rick Pitino, but their message is they really want me. They like how I play, they like how I shoot, they like how I score the ball.”

St. John’s has barely recruited New Jersey in recent years, but Pitino landed five-star Roselle Catholic guard Simeon Wilcher after he decommitted from North Carolina.

Now the Johnnies could add back-to-back stars from the Garden State.

Before the visits, Glover announced a top 8 of St Johns, Seton Hall, Creighton, Illinois, Villanova, Providence, Ohio State and St. Joe’s.

Karriem Memminger of the Riverside Hawks told ZAGSBLOG Glover will provide an instant impact.

“He’s a big, big scoring guard,” he said. “He can hit the mid-range and the three-ball off the dribble. He can catch and shoot. He also plays [good] defense. He has an unbelievably huge upside.”
