With the first live period quickly approaching, one Rivals analyst is excited to see one of the UNC basketball program’s commits play next weekend.

It’s almost that time of year again for the live period to kick off.

Next weekend, the Nike EYBL and Adidas 3SSB will begin, as some of the country’s best high school prospects will compete against one another.

As Rivals college basketball analyst Jason Jordan will be in Nebraska for the Adidas event, he was asked which player he’s most excited to see. Jordan’s answer will make UNC basketball fans happy, as he tabbed Elliot Cadeau as the player he’s “definitely” ready to see in live action:

"“I’d definitely have to say Elliot Cadeau, who is coming off a stellar junior season that he capped off with a GEICO Nationals title last week. His run over the last nine months has been amazing. After being forced to sit out his entire sophomore year with a severe ankle injury, Cadeau pumped in 15 points, seven assists and six rebounds a game for the New York Lightning at the Nike Peach Jam. That included a 15-point, eight-assist, seven-rebound outing against Team CP3 (N.C.) and Kentucky-bound point guard Robert Dillingham. He also had a 16-point, nine-assist outing against All-Ohio and combo guard George Washington III, who is headed to Michigan. Cadeau’s floor game is masterful and his fiery edge on both ends of the floor is what always seems to give him an edge over the competition.”"

Jordan had some high praise for the future Tar Heel, as he noted his outstanding junior season after overcoming an injury during her sophomore campaign. As he gets back on the basketball court next weekend, there will be plenty of attention surrounding Cadeau, as fans are already excited for him to arrive on campus in Chapel Hill.

Next. Brady Dunlap down to five schools. dark
