The most underrated recruit in the 2022 class @JabariWestJr1 is on his official visit to @GW_MBB this weekend. S/o to @JamionChristian and @140205_Brown for making it happen. #AlwaysHungry #NeverSatisfied #TheTrojanWay

Welcome Jabari!! He played well during the Las Vegas Big Time event this Summer. I believe his Arkansas Hawks team went 3-0 in those games. He seems pretty athletic for his height and can even hit the three. Fills a need in the frontcourt for sure.

Welcome Jabari ! Seems like a bunch of HM's were kicking the tires but hadn't offered yet. To second what dmvpiranha said I did see he was listed in a prep hoops article about the Vegas tournament. "Las Vegas Big Time Recap: Top 10 Stockrisers". Unfortunately behind a pay wall.

Welcome Jabari!

Here is an article from one year ago

Welcome Jabari and family to the GW Colonials family!
Hope the fact that we were the first and only A-10 program to commit to him motivates Jabari to take advantage of this basketball and academic opportunity and be all that he can be at GW.

Welcome to GW. Seems like a good player to take a risk on before he blows up. Hope he loves it here and gets to contribute early on.

Welcome now officially to Jabari and family to our GW Colonial family!
Looks pretty solid. If he can play big and rebound and defend, he can't come to GW soon enough.

Senior year highlights he just posted. Say 6’7” F. Seems very active with decent fundamentals.

Actually it was half GW, half HS jersey. But I took that as a very positive sign of his intention not to seek a release from his signing.

So it looks like
Losing JC cost us one player. A good one. But not bad!

Mike K · 12/01/2022 10:31 pm

Entered the transfer portal.

Good find, Mike K.
Interesting news. An Ira Lee-like story in terms of never playing.

Jabari is in Hawaii with the team. Did he withdraw from portal?
