Creighton is high on 2018 Chicago wing prospect Talen Horton-Tucker. Plays for Chicago Simeon, and will run with fellow Creighton priority Ayo Dosunmu for the Mac Irvin Fire this summer on the EYBL circuit. Horton-Tucker was big time in Chicago playoffs and will likely see his Top 150 ranking increase with AAU ball.

THT: Iowa State, DePaul, UIC, Missouri, Northwestern, Loyola, Arizona State, Northwestern, Toledo, Towson

Can this guy play point? We need a point guard desperately in the 18 class. I'm afraid because they're all so highly rated and sought after, we could strike out on Dosunmu, Campbell, and Dotson. All borderline 5 star guys. What's the plan if we don't get one of the 3? I want Ayo bad. He's a stud

Can't tell what position he plays. Looks a little Roosevelt Jones-ish with a better jumpshot, but still a very crafty player with a high bball IQ.

safe to say Talen has worked his way into a top 100 player in the nation. Offers rolling in. Seems a priority for Northwestern, Creighton, Xavier, Notre Dame.....
