Our hearts are heavy as we remember our teammate, brother, and friend, Jaden DeJesus-Eves. At just 15 years old, Jaden was already a standout freshman on the varsity basketball team at Christian Brothers High School. Standing 6’8, he was a powerful presence on the court - but it was his kindness, faith, and gentle spirit that truly set him apart. He brought joy to his teammates, led with encouragement, and had a smile that could light up any room.

Tragically, Jaden passed away last week unexpectedly in his sleep, leaving his family, school, and community devastated. The news came as a profound shock to the tight-knit basketball community that had begun rallying around his bright and promising future. His loss has deeply impacted everyone who had the privilege of knowing him.

We are coming together to support Jaden’s family during this unimaginable time. If you feel led to give, please consider donating and sharing this page. Every prayer, contribution, and share means more than words can express. Forever our teammate. Forever our brother. #AllInForJaden
