Jalen Green was the top-ranked prospect in the 2020 high school class [1]. But instead of taking the most common routes of signing with an NCAA program or the Australian NBL’s Next Stars initiative, the six-foot-five gunner became the most prominent prospect to date to join the G-League, as part of the new program under the league’s control designed to bridge the gap between high school graduation and the NBA Draft.
It is a bit unclear how the newly named Ignite will be integrated into the G-League season in a normal year, but the pandemic actually helped for this first campaign of the project. As the NBA opted to play the entire season in a one-month span at the Disney campus and not every franchise sent a team, the Ignite were just a normal participant.

Jordan Geronimo and the coaches in his orbit always had a sense that, for him, college basketball could come with a more painful than normal adjustment period.
Geronimo came equipped with both the body and the mind for the Big Ten with a muscled-up 6-foot-6, 220-pound frame, a 7-foot wingspan and a pogo-stick vertical to go with it. His coaches raved about his basketball IQ and his energy level and he got the attention of high-major Division I schools when he proved during the summer between his junior and senior years that he could knock down 3-pointers.
