Dashawn Mcdowell 2016 Southeast Point Guard (Signed to SMU)
Mcdowell has improved tremendously since his freshman season at Southeast. The athleticism, height, and talent have always been there, but he has fine tuned his gam. He is great at getting to the basket and finishing strong. Mcdowell makes others around him better with his excellent vision. He will be a great asset to SMU next season.
Ron Walker 2017 Southeast Shooting Guard
Walker has the body of a linebacker, but plays with a guard skill set. He is very strong to the rim and finishes well. Walker was great defensively constantly hounding his opponent. He finished with several steals on the night. Walker excels in transition.
Chris Nimsey 2016 Noble Guard
Nimsey handles the ball well for the Bears. He is a knock down shooter from the outside that has the ability to heat up in a hurry. Nimsey is slightly undersized, but don’t tell him that. He hustles on both ends of the floor and gives everything he has each night.
Jalal Gondel 2016 Noble Forward
Gondel has had a great senior season leading the Bears deep in the playoffs. He is a team player that has gone under the radar for most of his career. In the paint Gondel dominates standing around 6’6.” He has a nice face up jumper from 10-15 feet out. He was excellent on Saturday night finishing around the rim. Gondel is a great stretch four at the next level he hit a couple of three-pointers on Saturday.
Callen Haydon 2017 El Reno Point Guard
Haydon has had a tremendous junior season after a great summer with the Oklahoma Servants. Haydon is a great shooter at the Point. He is undersized, but quick. He scored the ball to his standards on Saturday, but impressed heavily with his ability to find the open teammate.
Christian Wassana 2016 El Reno Shooting Guard
Wassana is a sharp shooter from the outside. He is a high volume shooter that can start a run in a hurry. On Saturday Wassana started a run for El Reno that would end up being the clincher. If a small college in the region is looking for a three-point shooter that can create his own shot Wassana would be a young man to take a look at.
Kade Hileman 2016 El Reno Forward
Hileman is a hidden jewel in Oklahoma. He is a 6’6” post player with athleticism that will surprise you at the four. He scores the ball very well around the rim. On defense Hileman plays much bigger than his 6’6” height with his great hops and ability to block shots. He gets up and down the floor very quickly. He will be able to have an instant impact at the small college level.
Carlos Coppage 2017 Ardmore Point Guard
Coppage used his quickness to create offense at the Point. He was patient feeding his teammates for open looks at the basket. He hit a couple three-pointers on the night. It was not the best shooting night for him, but he still had a good impact offensively.
Marvin Johnson 2017 Ardmore Shooting Guard
Johnson is very long and athletic it looks like he might have grown. He is a legit 6’5” and trending towards 6’6.” He has the talent to be a very good player at the next level. He rebounded the ball very well. At times he is a little passive, but that will come as he matures. He used his length defensively to reek havoc on El Reno. Johnson is a legit Division I prospect at the next level.
