This June, there are numerous teams with good young talent on the roster and one one day we were able to see talent across four different classes make an impact.
Tariq Belvin (6’4 F, Lutcher, 2017) – Belvin can knock down perimeter shots at a high level, especially from the corner. He attacks the rim hard and on the defensive end can defend multiple positions. Had a few blocks as both the primary and secondary defender. Explosive.
Marquis Webb (6’3 F, Christian Life, 2017) – Webb has more range than just about anyone in the state. He shoots a set shot with a quick release and is will shoot it at any point once he crosses half court. Has the vision to make key passes as well but rarely puts the ball on the floor.
Jonathan Thomas (5’10 PG, Christian Life, 2017) – Williams was behind numerous guards last year but has shown his ability to attack the rim in both the half court setting and in transition. He’s fearless when attacked and has the quickness and athleticism to get to the rim.
Oddyst Walker (6’1 G, Parkview Baptist, 2018) – Walker scored from all three levels both on and off the ball on the offensive end. His real impact came defensively as he was disruptive on the ball the entire game. Numerous steals came from his on the ball pressure and he finished well in transition.
Jalen Perkins (6’6 F, Walker, 2018) – Perkins has grown and so has his game. Elbow and short corner jumpers were falling the entire game for him. He’s long with plenty of bounce and his he gets more aggressive, it’ll really help. Can switch out on the perimeter when needed or protect rim.
Allen ‘KJ’ Franklin (5’8 PG, St Amant, 2019) – Franklin’s body control when he gets into the lane is impressive. He has the ability to finish around longer defenders and the quickness and ball handler to get by defenders. He’s pesky on defense on the ball and likes to play in passing lanes off the ball.
Zak Kingham (5’6 PG, Parkview Baptist, 2019) – Kingham runs the show for PBS and is an extremely gifted ball handler. Has a bit of flair to him and routinely makes the correct passes. His trigger is quick and he isn’t afraid to take shots from deep when defenders are late to the ball.
Jalen Cook (6’0 PG, Walker, 2020) – Cook will play a big role for Walker this season as an incoming freshman. He’s one of the better freshman in the state and can do it all on the court. His court vision is incredible and can thread the needle. Behind a talented backcourt but he could push to start.
