Dylan Haper’s latest highlight is one that might be seen in a video game. This time, the Rutgers basketball commit almost nonchalantly puts back a rebound with a two-handed dunk this past Saturday.
A five-star guard, Harper committed to Rutgers in December. He is having a strong year for Don Bosco Prep (Ramsey, New Jersey), averaging 22.7 points per game in 11 games played.
Harper is the No. 2 recruit in the nation according to ESPN.
The highlight sees Harper follow a three-point shot from teammate Jordan Ghee, jump, get the rebound and put it back with a two-handed dunk. Good instincts from Harper on the play while also showing a flash of his explosiveness.
DYLAN HARPER.

Harper had a quieter game on Saturday, scoring nine points in Don Bosco’s 62-45 win over Paul VI (Haddonfield, New Jersey).
Despite injuries this season, Harper is still looking strong. He is one of two five-star commits in the Rutgers 2024 class, joining forward [autotag]Ace Baile[/autotag]y from McEachern (Powder Springs, Georgia).

Ranked the No. 3 player in the nation, Bailey is having a very strong season. Harper and Bailey are the two highest commits in Rutgers basketball history.
