Xavier Booker continues to fascinate with his length, wiggle, and athleticism. Listed on the roster at 6-11, the lefty knocked down some jumpers and he pushed the ball in transition in grab and go type situations off the defensive glass. He continues to go through stretches of non-production, like to see him use his length and size more consistently. There is intrigue still there, need to see the consistent output.
Xavier Booker was one of the fastest risers in the recruiting world during the summer of 2022. He earned MVP honors at the Pangos All-American Camp in June 2022. Booker’s performance capped off what was a great 2022 season where he led Indianapolis (Indiana) Cathedral to the Class 4A state championship in March. As a sophomore at Cathedral, he only averaged four points and three rebounds a game. But those figures jumped to 12.5 points and 6.7 rebounds per game while shooting 36% from 3-point range his junior year. Booker was born in Missouri but moved to Indiana in first grade.
