2021 Rankings Update: Top Big Men

<p>Here are our top big men from the class of 2021 according to our newest rankings.</p> <p><strong><a href="https://prephoops.com/player/aaron-jacob/">Aaron Jacob</a></strong></p> <p><a href="https://prephoops.com/player/aaron-jacob/">Aaron Jacob</a> has had a good season so far with Chaparral. Standing at 6'8 he has very good size but the best part of his game is his shooting stroke from outside. Aaron, when he gets hot, can make multiple threes in a row, I have seen a few times when he hit at least three threes in a row. Also, he is good on the defensive end using his length to affect opposing teams shots. This year he is averaging 10.6 points, 3.1 rebounds, and 0.8 blocks per game. </p> <p><strong>Nolan Marnold</strong></p> <p>Nolan Marnold is one of the biggest players in the state, standing at 6'8 and weighing in at 235 pounds, he is a force to be reckoned with. Having size that almost no one in the state can match, Nolan stands out.  He uses this size to move players around down low and get easy buckets. This year he is averaging 10.6 points, 4.7 rebounds, and 1.5 blocks per game.</p> <p><strong><a href="https://prephoops.com/player/brayden-carter/"><a href="https://prephoops.com/player/brayden-carter/">Brayden Carter</a></a></strong></p> <p><a href="https://prephoops.com/player/brayden-carter/"><a href="https://prephoops.com/player/brayden-carter/">Brayden Carter</a></a> is having one of the best junior years out of anyone in the state. This year he is averaging 19.1 points, 10.7 rebounds, and 1.6 blocks per game. From the power forward position Brayden can score from mid range and has a good set of post moves down low. Standing at 6'7 on the defensive end he can get many blocks.</p> <p><strong>Greg Gerhadt</strong></p> <p><a href="https://prephoops.com/player/greg-gerhardt/"><a href="https://prephoops.com/player/greg-gerhardt/">Greg Gerhardt</a></a> is one of the tallest players in the class standing at 6'10, with this great size he can finish above smaller defenders. Greg has good footwork down low and solid post moves. Also Greg can shoot the ball from the outside which is something that makes him such a good prospect. Greg is someone who has a lot of potential and with the proper work could move up our rankings.</p> <p><strong>Terrence Ferguson</strong></p> <p>Terrence Ferguson is a football star whose game translates well onto the basketball court. He has picked up offers from almost every top football college in the nation, so we know he's a natural athlete. Despite only being 6'4, Terrence can hang with bigger players down low, he has a football players build so he can move other players to get his way. He has a great back to the basket game and a soft touch around the rim. </p>
