The Indiana high school scene took a major hit today as it was announced per his Twitter that 2025 five-star guard and key Indiana basketball target, Jalen Haralson will be transferring from Fishers High School to elite prep school La Lumiere. This move allows Haralson to consistently compete against some of the top high school players across the country.

As a sophomore at Fishers, Jalen Haralson averaged 23.4 points, 7.7 rebounds, and 3.9 assists in 22 total games played.

Haralson, who recently started playing for Phenom United 16U on the Adidas 3SSB circuit, played most of his spring/summer with Indy Heat 17U on the Nike EYBL circuit alongside fellow 2025 priority Indiana target Trent Sisley.

“Obviously, he is really athletic and he can get to the rim,” Jalen Haralson’s Indy Heat 17U teammate Trent Sisley told HoosierIllustrated.com earlier this spring. “He’s been knocking down that three-ball too so really just a fun guy to play with and just always hits the open guy.”

In eight games at EYBL Peach Jam, Haralson averaged 13.8 points, 6.9 assists, and 5.0 rebounds.

La Lumiere plays as part of the National Interscholastic Basketball Conference (NIBC), which features Montverde Academy who produced IU players Jalen Hood-Schifino and Malik Reneau.

Schools such as Indiana, Purdue, Wisconsin, Notre Dame, Michigan, Ohio State, Michigan State, Iowa, Florida State, Auburn, Missouri, Maryland, LSU and others are involved with this elite guard.

Below are recent scouting notes from HoosierIllustrated.com plus a highlight video of Haralson from earlier this summer.

Very rarely do you see a lead guard that is a true 6-foot-8 and has the elite talent that Haralson has. His passing was arguably the best thing you saw from him this past weekend as he did such a great job of finding the open man and creating looks for his teammates. His scoring mostly came from around the basket off strong drives but he also showed his improved shot making from behind the arc, one area that many thought needed improved. With as much talent that Haralson has, he is arguably the most unselfish player at that level that I have seen and he just makes his teammates around him better. Haralson is a special guard and it is not hard to see why high major schools are so invested in him.
