“I think Jordan is going to be great,” Brentwood coach Ryan Bailey said. “Even after a good shooting night, he’s back in the gym at 7 a.m. the next morning.”The thing is Houegban looks like he’s in the middle of another growth spurt. He’s 6 feet 1 but runs the court with feet that are expanding, which explains his size 13 shoes and occasional awkwardness.Added Bailey: “When you shake his hand, it’s like a mitt around you.
Houegban’s mother, Maya, came from Sierra Leon when she was 5 and lived in New York. His father is 6-5. She’s 5-4, and when Jordan passed her and his older sister in height, the family dynamic changed. “That’s why I knew I had to get him under control before he got taller than me,” his mother said. “Now he towers over me. I can’t look down at him and tell him anything.”“We believe in education,” she said. “Made sure it’s a daily thing, not Monday through Friday, but every day.”
