Caleb Bennett, 6’5, 2017, Lafayette (Mo.)
The Lehigh signee is returning from a severely sprained ankle suffered early in the season. He is a talented wing player that can handle the ball, play high above the rim and is a standout perimeter shooter. He went for 19 points, six boards and
Zach Harvey, 6’4, 2019, Hayden (Kan.)
One of the more gifted players in the state, Harvey is long, athletic, can handle it and shoot it … he’s capable of putting on a show and had 24 points in a win over Liberty North on Saturday.
Cameron Hairston, 6’3, 2017, Liberty North (Mo.)
Came off the bench and provided instant offense for the Broncos. He’s a hard-working player who gets a lot of garbage type buckets but can do a lot of different things as a wing/inside hybrid.
Sterling Hicks, 6’4, 2017, Lafayette (Mo.)
Hicks is a solid all-around player that can play inside or out and had a good performance against a talented Bishop Miege front line, going for 10 points and six rebounds.
JaMichael Morgan, 6’3, 2017, Blue Valley Northwest (Kan.)
An Oral Roberts signee, Morgan provided one of the day’s highlights, throwing down an impressive dunk against Lee’s Summit North. He’s a good all-around performer who can shoot, handle and defend.
Sadique Perkins, 6’3, 2018 Park Hill South (Mo.)
Perkins is a 2-3 type that can play a little on the inside as well as on the outside where he can handle the ball, shoot and score. He’s a good all-around player that is long and a versatile defender and rebounder.
JeVon Williams, 6’4, 2019, Raymore-Peculiar (Mo.)
He’s an athletic wing that gets a lot of garbage buckets and scores without dominating the basketball. He provided one of the highlights at the Showcase, throwing the ball in the basket while seated on the ground after winning the scramble for a loose ball as the first quarter horn sounded.
