“JJ Andrews is without question the best player in the state of Arkansas. Our staff has always thought there’s no way he's not the No. 1 player nationally in his class. No player means more to their respective team. He’s the best player in the state on both ends of the floor. His continued development as an individual player has been incredible. He’s genuinely a high-character kid, a high performer academically and he comes from a great family that’s actively involved in the community.”
