Khani Rooths transferred from Washington (D.C.) Georgetown Prep to national powerhouse prep program IMG Academy in Bradenton, Florida, before his junior season. During December 2022’s Hoophall West event, Rooths averaged four blocks per game. “I defend everything, and I take pride in that,” Rooths told On3’s Joe Tipton. “I can attack the rim well, draw fouls, and get to the line. I’m versatile and can play multiple positions. I want to improve the most with my catch-and-shoot threes.” Rooths said he credits a lot of his success as a player from his grandfather, who coached women’s basketball on a number of different levels. “He taught me to find ways to really affect the game,” Rooths told ProspectiveInsight.com. “Sometimes my shot is not going, so I’ve learned from him to find ways to get my teammates open. He also taught me to be really aggressive as much as I can and just show people that I am him.” Rooths said he enjoys watching LeBron James, Jayson Tatum and Paul George. “I like the way Paul George plays, how he lets the game come to him, but he can still take it over. How LeBron knows everything like his knowledge of the game and how he knows what his teammates are going to do, how he can just control the tempo and stuff like that. Jayson Tatum, how he can take his man anytime he wants to get a bucket anytime.”
