Joseph Thompson is another who could become nationally known. At 6'8 he possesses the ability to step out as a shooter or ball handler as well as his dominance from the free throw line and in. Like Thompson, David Williams is a versatile forward who continues to develop his game on both ends.
Kevin Tripeaux II is a well rounded and very consistent player who just needs to take the natural progression to become an interesting prospect and help Episcopal. J'Son Brooks is thick and strong but plays as well on the perimeter as he does down low at his size. A lot of polishing is needed but there is time for him to become scary good.
If you're looking for a shooter who is adding the rest of his game second, Zach Thompson is your guy. Unlike most, shooting came first for him despite still learning his body. Once that part comes along, he'll be someone who small schools must look at.
Two players who are dynamic at guard but need to become leaders and play makers are Tyriq Matthews and Roy Ford. Ford can get into the lane but isn't always looking for others while Matthews is a shooter who can handle the ball but doesn't make others better. If either add that part of their game, their stock will sore.
