Watch Ohio State freshman-to-be point guard D.J. Carton work on his game

By now you are hopefully aware of the great recruiting class Ohio State basketball has coming in. As a gentle reminder, the Buckeyes are the only program with three of the top thirty-six freshman in the fold for next year according to the ESPN 100 2019 recruiting rankings.

One of those — and the most heralded — is freshman blue chip point guard D.J. Carton. His rise up the rankings from just last season has been nothing short of miraculous.

But it didn’t come without hard work. Watch Carton work on his game as he prepares to graduate and then make his way to Columbus to add a much-needed back-court presence next year.

The following is courtesy of HoopFocus’ YouTube channel. What becomes apparent is his leaping ability at just 6-1, the range, and his smooth shot as a left-hander.

You’re going to enjoy watching this kid play next year Buckeye fans.
