Seryee Lewis (Kenwood)
Previous Ranking: #7
Current Ranking: #4
Lewis has much upside as any post prospect in this class. He had shown that in spurts throughout the spring and summer. Starting to put it together as a junior posting numbers while still having an even higher ceiling he can go to. Bouncy four man with explosion around the rim dunking and swatting shots. Overall he is just playing so much harder than early in his career.
Martice Mitchell (Bloom)
Previous Ranking: #18
Current Ranking: #8
Mitchell is a long and lanky big man that runs the floor and has touch from the perimeter. The Bloom junior is starting to flash the immense upside that he has always had. Still so much more room to grow as a player on both ends which is scary.
Ryan Isaacson (Hinsdale Central)
Previous Ranking: #33
Current Ranking: #19
Skilled face up four that missed a portion of the season, but between our fall evals and what we did see early in the high school season he impressed us significantly. His skill set fits where the game is going. Spaces the court with his shooting and runs the floor fluidly.
Aaron Tims (Hinsdale Central)
Previous Ranking: #53
Current Ranking: #26
Tims is starting to come into his own as a player. A bit of a tweener the 6’7” forward is leaning toward more of a four man that wins with quickness on the block along with being able to take his man off the bounce from the mid-post area.
Kennedy Brown (Bogan)
Previous Ranking: NR
Current Ranking: #29
This 6’8” four man broke out in a major way at the Chicago Elite Classic. Long and angular post that was extremely active. Quick second jump off the floor with his springy legs. Snatched rebounds in traffic. Caught passes in tight spaces for finishes and got on the offensive glass for put backs.
Armond Williams (East St. Louis)
Previous Ranking: #117
Current Ranking: #37
We are huge fans of the upside with this 2020 post. The 6’8” big man is a long and lanky post that is rail thin. Once he adds on strength he will be an even better player. Runs the floor hard and flashes developmental potential offensively. Shot blocking presence and has a chance to be a very good rebounder.
