Marquis Johnson 2016 Putnam City West PG
Johnson was all over the place for the Patriots. He started out raining three's, but found his way into his true point guard role. Defenders had trouble staying in front of Johnson it caused rotation problems. Johnson was always able to find the open man. He is one of the most overlooked Oklahoma prospects in 2016. Johnson is ready to make a name for himself as an elite prospect.
Jakolby Long 2016 Mustang SG (Iowa State Signee)
Long has taken his game to the next level and has become a knock down shooter. He and the Broncos play the game at a tremendous pace, which plays to his strengths. Long played exceptionally well in transition and rebounded the ball well. Long is a do it all player who is well deserving of all of his accolades. Look for Long to have a monster senior season.
York Benjamin 2016 Mustang PF
Benjamin is back in action for the Broncos and had an immediate impact. He brought loads of intensity to floor and played hard. He is under developed on the offensive end, but on defensively Benjamin does a great job of staying vertical and rebounding the ball. Benjamin is still getting acquainted with his new team, but will plug in nicely and have huge role for the Broncos.
Mike Harris 2016 Tulsa Central PG
Harris showed that he has the ability to step into the second scorers role for the Braves. When teams honed in on Elijah Landrum, Harris lit it up from long range. As a Point Guard, Harris moves well without the ball and seems to always be in the right spot. Small colleges should give Harris a good look.
Isaac Leggins 2016 Putnam City West PF
Leggins has dropped a significant amount of weight heading into his senior season and it has proven to help him on the court. Leggins was unstoppable Saturday on the glass. When he corralled rebounds he found his guards quickly to spring the fast break. Leggins has also shown an improved touch around the rim. He is undersized, which scares some colleges away, but he is quick and strong in the paint. Keep an eye on Leggins over his senior season.
