AKRON, Ohio — At 6 feet, 7 inches and 192 pounds, Rondae Jefferson of Chester (Pa.) High School can play anywhere from the 1 to the 4. He’s ranked as the No. 5 small forward in the Class of 2013 by Rivals, but coaches love his versatility. He can bring the ball up the floor, score off the wing and play down low. “He’s super talented,” said one Big East assistant coach recruiting Jefferson. “He’s a skilled/talented wing in the mold of a point forward like Scottie Pippen. “He possesses a unique ability to handle and pass the ball, as well as the toughness to bang on the interior. He has great court vision due to a height advantage over most guards. “He’s best at slashing and finishing, but must continue to develop his range on the jumper.” At the LeBron James Skills Academy, Jefferson listed Villanova, Temple, Pitt and Rutgers as the schools showing him the most love. “I will visit some of them,” he said.
