Player: Jeremy Baker

School: Liberty Heights
Class: 2021
Almost every year, we see players that are deserving and look the part of a college-level player, get overlooked by many. One of those players that still remains on the board as an unsigned senior is 2021 6'4 Jeremy Baker.
When you watched Liberty Heights this year, it is easy to get sucked into the talent of Jonas Aidoo, Elijah Jamison, PJ Edwards, and others. But there are players like Baker that should also be grabbing some attention as well. We are talking about a 6'4, strongly built point guard that uses his body well to create separation and body-up defenders. He also shows exceptional leader skills on the court, knowing what his role is, how he can be effective, and when he needs to step up. Baker does a tremendous job in being a nice balance on the floor, but not needing the spotlight to bring positive minutes. He can score from multiple levels, and simply is a tough, gritty player that also can be an impact on both ends of the court.
What he can bring to a college program is that same leadership and winning mentality. He is going to provide those positives minutes that teams need and one you can rely on. Check out some of his highlights below:
