USC Eyes Top Forward Malachi Jordan | USC Trojans Basketball News

USC is on a recruiting tear, locking down a top 2026 class and now targeting elite four-star forward Malachi Jordan for 2027 — ranked 17th nationally and fifth-best forward. With visits to Vanderbilt, UConn, Alabama, and Tennessee already scheduled, Jordan’s official USC visit is set for September 4. For coach Eric Musselman, landing Jordan would be a major boost as he rebuilds the program, especially after securing three McDonald’s All-Americans in 2026. That class, already ranked 10th nationally, includes five-star Christian Collins and the Ratliff brothers, Adonis and Darius — all poised to bring consistency. If Jordan joins, he could become a cornerstone alongside them, helping USC compete for deep tournament runs despite stiff competition from powerhouse programs.
