INDIANAPOLIS - The IU Indianapolis men's basketball program announced the signing of 6-foot guard Jaden Johnson (Roebuck, S.C. / Dorman) to a National Letter of Intent to join the program, beginning next season. 

"Jaden can really score it at all three levels. He's quick with the ball in his hands, shifty and gets to his spots well," head coach Ben Howlett said. "I love guards who can score it and he fits that mold. He's a great young man and comes from a great family, so we're excited to get him here."

Johnson averaged 21.3 points, 3.3 rebounds and 3.0 assists per game as a junior while shooting 34 percent from beyond the arc. He's a three-time 5A-All State and Region 2-5A All-Region selection. Dorman finished this past season 21-7 overall and a tenth straight Elite 8 appearance. 

He played AAU with the Upward Stars 3SSB program, earned 17U First Team honors this past summer after averaging 20.8 points, 3.0 rebounds and 3.0 assists per game and making 18 threes in four games. 

Johnson is rated among the top prospects from the state of South Carolina and picked the Jaguars over a variety of Division I offers. He becomes the program's first signee for next season.
