Continue ReadingWith the wing position ever-evolving a lot of times it’s hard to nail down a “position” for some guys. The term position-less basketball is becoming more and more evident with each rising class.
Here is a list of guys we consider the top guys from the state in the class of 2021.
Keshawn Murphy Keshawn Murphy 6'10" | SF Ramsay | 2021 State #152 Nation AL , 6’9 WF, Ramsay: The recent Western Kentucky commit has shown that he is a force to be wrecking with. His size and skill-set make him a very high-level prospect. His outside shooting and shot-blocking ability have made him one of the top 3 players in the state. His ability to shoot the ball with range, put the ball on the floor against any defender, as well as guard multiple positions makes him the highest-ranked wing player in the class for sure.
Cameron Crawford Cameron Crawford 6'4" | SG Spain Park | 2021 State AL , 6’5 W, Spain Park: This prospects game has matured a lot over the last year. He continues to grow which is scary and has shown the ability to affect the game in multiple ways besides scoring. He is comfortable with playing any position on the perimeter but strives in transition and working off screens and in tight quarters from the wing. His #1 attribute is definitely his ability to guard multiple positions on the floor including some 4 men when teams want to go small. We look for his stock to continue to rise as he enters his senior season. D1’s better get in his inbox quick!
Riley Leonard Riley Leonard 6'4" | SF Fairhope | 2021 State AL , 6’5 SF, Fairhope: An all-around good player. With the ability to wear several hats while on the floor. He can help with ball-handling duties, score at a high clip, and defender the other team’s best player. He has really improved over the past season with his one-on-one game which makes him even more valuable. Look for him to get even better with the continued work.
Dawson Sarblah Dawson Sarblah 6'5" | SF Greenville | 2021 State AL , 6’5 SF, Greenville: A hyperactive wing with insane athletic ability. He is a prototypical 3 and D guy with his size and skill-set. His value is also on the defensive end but with the 3 and D role becoming more and more valuable in today’s game he will definitely be on college coaches big board for the 2021 signing period.
Jailyn Murray Jailyn Murray 6'7" | SF Leflore | 2021 State AL , 6’7 SF, LeFlore: A wing player with great size and length to be a perimeter player. He can create his own shot off the dribble whether it is from deep or in the mid-range. He also can play with his back to the basket if teams try and go small against him, but we project him to be a legit wing player on the next level with the potential to be a volume scorer on the college level.
