Most noted on the court for his end-to-end speed, athleticism and lockdown defense, Max Jackson is rated one of the top JUCO players in the country. Growing up playing in the parks on the South Side of Chicago, Jackson honed his skills at Washington Park, Mandrake Park and on the lakefront outside. Nowadays, when he’s not hooping for the Harper College Hawks, Jackson finds the best indoor runs at the 63rd Street Y and his old high school De La Salle, where he runs with a lot of college guys.
