- Ben Carroll, Greenwood (37th Overall) – Sixteen points and 6 rebounds per game for the 6’7 forward earns him a spot inside the top 40 in the rankings. Carroll shows some positional versatility and ability to shoot the three. Coming in at 41% from long range, Carroll is a prospect to keep an eye on thanks to his size and skill level.
- Sebian Dillard, St. Xavier (45th Overall) – The leading scorer for St. X, Dillard came on our radar halfway through this season. Dillard is a good athlete and slasher that is just good enough of a shooter to keep defenses honest. Sebian will be one of the best guards in the city of Louisville next season.
- Mason Rusch, Calvary Christian (54th Overall) – Mason plays at a small school against questionable competition but you cannot deny his ability to score the basketball. Already over 2,000 points for his high school career, Rusch is a volume scorer but could find a home at the college level with a small school who needs a scoring guard.
- Parker Rice, Butler County (76th Overall) – Scoring 17 points and grabbing 7 rebounds per game as a 6’6 wing forward is enough to at least get some interest as a potential college prospect. Butler County doesn’t play the toughest schedule but Rice could be a big time mover in the rankings and in the eyes of coaches as he plays AAU this season.
- Tyler Maynard, Lawrence County (78th Overall) – 21 points per game in the wide open offensive system that Lawrence County runs is good but his shooting number show Maynard isn’t a product of system but also a really good scoring guard who is going to have some options to play at the next level.
Others Who Cracked the Rankings:
- Alex Schalch, Robertson County
- Nick Keeton, Paintsville
- Rabby Kamona, Dunbar
- Thomas Spencer, Wayne County
- Robert Kingrey, Glasgow
