Kani Acree Video
Carbondale 2018 small forward Kani Acree is a top 30 prospect in the senior class. He has a nice combination of strength and athleticism. Acree was money as usual from mid-range on the day when we saw him at the Southern Illinois Fall Skills Day. Excellent pull up shooter that stays balanced on his shot and is consistent with his mechanics. We definitely saw improvement in his three point shot. Most of the time he is a streaky shooter, but was more reliable from beyond the arc. In the games he also displayed his ability to score at the cup in bunches. Solid ball handler for a small forward he uses his strength and long strides to get to the basket and score around the hoop. Great get for Ball State as he should be an impact player for them.
We caught up with Acree in this video interview to discuss his recent commitment to Ball State in-depth along with this upcoming season where Carbondale will be one of the top teams in southern Illinois.
