Jordan Dorrell Hawkins was born in the United States on April 29, 2002. He played his basketball for the Big East Conference's UConn Huskies. Hawkins, a youngster from Gaithersburg, Maryland, made Gaithersburg High School his top option. DeMatha Catholic High School became his new school after his second year. Hawkins was named the Gatorade Player of the Year in Maryland for his outstanding senior season, which included 19.7 points, 11.4 rebounds, 3.7 assists, 2.3 steals, and 1.9 blocks per game. The four-star recruit Hawkins decided to play collegiate basketball for UConn despite receiving offers from Seton Hall, Louisville, Marquette, Xavier, and Louisville.

Hawkins' mother and Reese's dad are siblings. The two grew up in both the DC and Virginia area. Both the cousins recently won the NCAA championship. According to ABC, Angel Reese told “GMA3” that they grew up playing basketball together at cookouts and family functions.

Reese continued by saying “I’m happy for him, to see everything he’s done and be so successful.”

Both the cousins have had tremendous success on and off the field with Reese recently landing an endorsement deal with Mercedes Benz and Jordan just signed a deal with Dunkin Donuts. Jordan recently declared for the NBA draft and Resse is returning for another season with The LSU squad. No matter the outcome, it is clear that the two families have championship DNAs in them.
