2024 IU basketball recruiting target Yves Missi developing fast, as Indiana solidifies relationship with key AAU program

The buzz surrounding Yves Missi centers on how much he has developed year-over-year, but even just over a few months his improvement was easy to see. We watched Missi in April at the Nike EYBL even…

Indiana Basketball Hosts Pair of 2025 In-State Recruits

Mike Woodson and the Indiana basketball coaching staff are hoping to make an early impression on a pair of 2025 in-state recruits. Jalen Haralson from Fishers, Ind. visited the Indiana campus on Monday, and Trent Sisley from Heritage Hills High School was in Bloomington on Tuesday.

I'd say one of Trent Sisley or Haralson is a must get for Indiana.

I like both but Haralson is so skilled for his size. I think they both end up at IU. Fingers crossed.

GBI will explode with "Fire Painter" posts if that day comes. They are having an NIL-induced semi meltdown over there.

What are their games like? Both IN kids, correct?

Correct.

Haralson is your modern 6'5-6'6 wing who can do it all; pass, dribble, shoot. Long, athletic, he'll be a lottery pick.

Not to put too much pressure on Sisley, but not sure I've seen someone come out of that neck of the woods in Southern IN with that size and skillset since Larry Legend himself. All kidding aside, Sisley has range from all over the court and can put the ball on the floor. And he's a good athlete. He's a legit 6'6 if not taller and at 15 or 16 years old, might not be done growing. Kyle Singler is an appropriate comparison in my opinion.

Assuming Sisley can grow to 6'8, both these kids will be extremely tough to land as the competition from all over the country will be fierce.

Winning seasons and tourney success over the next 2 seasons surely would help.

They'll both likely end up being exactly what modern day NBA GMs are clamoring for. 6'6 - 6'8, athletic, versatile, wings that can shoot and defend.

They'll both end up being top 20-30 kids in 2025, with Haralson likely being top 10.

If that ends up being true, and if history repeats itself...Purdue won't get either, and IU won't get both of them. I'd take either of them, obviously...maybe leaning towards Sisley. As he's a tad better shooter, and at this point, isn't as likely to be a 1 and done kid.

A LOT can happen for either, good and bad, before 2025 gets here though. Hope they both progress and continue to be studs. Indiana basketball as a whole needs high level kids like them.

I suspect Haralson will end up at La Lumiere or Monteverde when all said and done, shouldn't even be at Fishers in the first place. Had some luck landing Monteverde kids the last few classes and seem to be targeting more, but I always lose a little bit a hope once these Indiana kids start moving out of state.

Sisley would be the ideal Indiana player and crowd favorite for years. I think IU has as good as shot to land him as anybody else. And I agree, Purdue doesn't have a chance here.

Sisley reminds me of Laskowski as of now. Could be better even. WE shall see.

Laskowski was that athletic?
