Hikeem Stewart (6’4″, PG/SG, 2011), has reportedly made his college choice, picking the University of Washington. Stewart is a native of Washington and attends the well-known Ranier Beach High School in Seattle.
Ranier Beach was also known for where his older brothers, Lodrick and Rodrick, attended before also playing Division I level basketball themselves. Despite many who thought Stewart was playing the summer circuit as an attempt to draw more interest, he says that’s not the case. |

According to Stewart, he was sure about his college choice at the end of his junior high school year, before his solid AAU summer season:
I have not seen enough of Stewart to give a full scouting report. What I have seen is that he’s a natural forward that will need to make the move to a guard in order to really advance. He plays defense well and is a solid passing forward. He can handle the ball well enough to play SG. |
