Jameel Alausa (Chicago U-High)
Alausa moved up from #26 to #17. Alausa is an athletic four man that played well for All-In/Young & Reckless being a presence on the boards and finishing on the interior during the July evaluation period. Upside prospect!
Connor Niego (Lyons)
After a strong July Niego made the jump from #33 to #25. The Holy Cross commit got stronger and that took his game to new heights with his rebounding and scoring in the paint taking on a more prominent role as July went along for Chicago Lockdown.
Collin Stallworth (Rochester)
Stallworth moved up 12 spots in the overall from #44 to #32. It was a slow start to the month for Stallworth, but he was outstanding the last week in Kansas City where he was grabbing rebounds left and right along with finishing above the rim as well as flashing a jumper.
Taylor Bruninga (Illini Bluffs)
Bruninga made another huge jump after backing up his spring with a strong July going from #68 to #35 in the overall rankings. He shot the ball well again which is his biggest asset, but what impressed us was his ability to shot fake and go around his guy along with fighting on the interior.
Kevin Williams (Rantoul)
Williams got a monster bump in the rankings all the way to #59 after a strong July for Team Illinois. He is a strong and physical back to the basket scorer that shoots a high percentage inside the paint with a soft touch. Quality rebounder.
Justin Bottorff (Quincy Notre Dame)
Bottorff made the switch over to Quad City Elite and after a great showing there he moved from #90 to #60. He was able to show his face up skills especially working in the mid-range with his jump shot and craftiness to score.
Nathan Scott (Neuqua Valley)
Scott makes his debut in the rankings at #70 with an outstanding July that opened the eyes of college coaches. Bouncy combo forward that runs the floor and can even space the floor on occasion.
