<p>What prospects from the state of Illinois did the best job on the boards over the weekend at <strong>Run N Slam</strong>? Here we break down the highest level rebounders at the event!</p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>Kyle Thomas (Illinois Wolves 15U)</strong></p>
<p>Thomas has legit size already early in the process and the 2022 center rebounded well in traffic snatching them with his strong hands.</p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>Anes Davenport (Mac Irvin Fire 16U)</strong></p>
<p>Davenport was a pleasant surprise with how well he boarded throughout the event. High energy forward that crashes the glass on both ends with a lot of aggressiveness.</p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>Jack Weber (Illinois Irish 17U)</strong></p>
<p>Weber is powerful post that was a strong performer on the glass for the Irish using his strength and boxed out opponents for boards.</p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>Christian Shumate (Young & Reckless 17U)</strong></p>
<p>Shumate is an elite level athlete and he used that to his full advantage being bouncy on the glass high pointing them in traffic along with several put backs.</p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>Frank Jakubicek (Quad City Elite 17U)</strong></p>
<p>Such a productive post is this Cary Grove big man. He rebounded at a very high rate when we saw QCE play against a big Indy Heat frontline.</p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>Darrell Reed (Young & Reckless 16U)</strong></p>
<p>Reed is a prospect that has the look of a big time rebounder. Strong and broad shoulders. He was very good rebounding on Saturday being physical mauling his opponents inside for rebounds.</p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>Kanye Smith (Meanstreets 15U)</strong></p>
<p>Smith projects as a wing, but we really liked what he brought to the table as an energy rebounder flying in for boards from out of nowhere in many cases.</p>
