Daniel Jacobsen impresses at training camp

Jacobsen was one of 30 players invited to Colorado Springs, Colo. for USA Basketball's U18 training camp. It didn't take long for the future Boilermaker to turn some heads.

247Sports recruiting analyst Adam Finkelstein raved about the 7-foot-3 center.

"Defensively, he put his body in front of drivers and contested plays at the rim, particularly when rotating from the weak-side of the floor," Finkelstein wrote.

"Offensively, he was trying to dunk everything. And even when he couldn't, he showed quick finishing ability around the paint. He worked for deep catches when playing with his back to the basket and then elevated into his baby hooks. He also made a couple of impressive quick passes from various spots on the floor."

After his showing at training camp, 247Sports bumped up Jacobsen's recruiting ranking. He jumped up to No. 86 overall in the 2024 recruiting class and bumped up from a three-star to a four-star prospect.
