Hey all,
During his junior year, Jules Bernard, the 6-foot-6, 190-pound small forward from Windward High School in Los Angeles, Calif., averaged (according to Maxpreps.com) 25.3 points, 13.7 rebounds and 2.6 assists per game.
Coming off an impressive spring and summer on the AAU Circuit, Bernard, the No. 38 ranked player in the 2018 class, decided to take the next step forward in his recruitment on Monday night.
With high-major programs from coast-to-coast pushing hard for the four-star prospect, Bernard took to Twitter to officially announce his top 10 list of schools he’s considering heading into his senior year.
When the dust finally settled, just Kansas, Arizona State, USC, Oregon, Stanford, UCLA, UNLV, Oklahoma, Miami (FL) and Georgetown were left standing for Bernard.
Late on Monday night, Bernard told me that he hasn’t scheduled a visit to Kansas yet, but hopes to do that in the near future.
Throughout the spring and summer, much has been written about Jules Bernard. JayhawkSlant.com is here to provide you with a look back at some reviews he received from Eric Bossi, Corey Evans and others.
-- Next on the list, top 50 wing Jules Bernard, was solid in all phases of the game. The way he's playing, he should make himself a priority prospect for programs in the Pac-12 and beyond. – Eric Bossi
-- In the second game of the afternoon session, top 50 wing Jules Bernard was very aggressive on the offensive end. He crashed the boards, got to his spots with the dribble and made things happen in the mid-range. Bernard always plays with toughness and opened up with a nice 18-point effort. – Eric Bossi and Corey Evans
-- A tough maestro with the basketball, it was nearly impossible for defenders to solve the riddle that is Jules Bernard. A super shift and crafty wing that can score the ball from each level, Bernard was arguably the best shooter in LA where he had no issues finding his own shot and converting with a hand in his face. – Corey Evans
-- Bernard showed off a versatile and compact game. He hit jumpers, got to the rim, rebounded, ran in transition and provided a stable presence for a relatively young but very talented Compton Magic team. – Eric Bossi
