The nation’s No. 6 ranked wing Hudson Greer out of Montverde Academy (Fla.) announced his commitment to Creighton on Friday afternoon.
Greer chose the Blue Jays over Alabama and Kansas where he had 20 offers during his recruitment process.
“The recruitment process has definitely picked up since the start of the July live period,” Greer told On3Sports’ Recruiting analyst Joe Tipton.
“They just made me feel like I was at home as the coaching staff were good to me and my family” Greer added on why he chose Creighton. “The city of Omaha just feels different when it comes to watching Creighton basketball.” Greer added.
“I’m going to give it 100% every time I step onto the floor, whether I score 20 points or five, as long as we win and know I contributed.” Greer said.
Greer moved to Montverde Academy before his senior season where he previously attended Lake Travis High School in Austin, Texas where he averaged 22.4 points, 7.4 rebounds, 1.8 assists, 2.0 steals, and 1.0 blocks per game while shooting 54 percent from the field as well as 36 percent from behind the arc.
During the Grassroots Circuit, Greer played with JL3 Elite based out of Texas where he averaged 14.3 points and 6.1 rebounds per game during the Nike EYBL Peach Jam:
Here’s a 247Sports Scouting Report on Greer: Greer is a consistently productive prospect who is always looking to get better and continues to improve at an impressive rate. He is all business, goes hard, and brings great genes to the table. Greer is truly one of the elite athletes in the country who owns the motor and competitiveness to make his athletic tools all the more impactful on both ends of the floor. He seems to get more athletic as time progresses and is a threat to make a viral play above the rim both in transition or in a half-court setting. What seperates him from his peers is his understanding of details and how hard he works on and off the court. He is an alert and instinctual mover without the basketball, he can make passes with either hand, and is an improved ball handler and shooter. He also takes rebounding seriously where he shows a nose for the ball. Earlier on, he was known for his pogo-stick bounce and ability to flourish in transition but he now is starting to carve out a skillset as a skilled straight-line slasher offensively who is a great play-finisher. Additionally, he has became more dependable from behind the arc as time progresses. He has sound enough mechanics to keep improving as a shooter and if his jumper falls at a more higher rate, his profile is bound to rise into a marquee realm of conversations.
