St. Mary’s Prep tandem: Julian Roper Julian Roper 6'4" | PG St. Mary's Prep | 2021 State #137 Nation MI and Peter Nwoke Peter Nwoke 6'8" | PF Orchard Lake St. Mary's | 2020 GA combine to create one of the three most competitive duos in Michigan’s class of 2021. Roper, who committed to Northwestern, is the 4th ranked player and is one of the strongest guards in the state. Nwoke, who is 6’8, is the 8th ranked player in the state and has improved a lot recently. The point guard-power forward combo will look to compete at the highest level in Michigan next season.
Huron High School backcourt: Julian Lewis Julian Lewis 6'5" | SG Ann Arbor Huron | 2021 State MI and Devin Womack Devin Womack 6'2" | CG Ann Arbor Huron | 2021 State MI also have to be on this list. They are both great at attacking the rim and finishing around or through defenders. Lewis and Womack are the 7th and 15th ranked players in the state, respectively, and they’re certainly the most intriguing backcourt in Michigan in my opinion. The two guards will have to take on even more of the scoring load next year but it seems like they’re ready to do so.
Detroit Douglass combo: Pierre Brooks Pierre Brooks 6'5" | SG Detroit Douglass | 2021 State #76 Nation MI and Javantae Randle Javantae Randle 6'9" | PF Detroit Frederick Douglass | 2021 State MI are the final pairing but they might have the most potential of the bunch. Brooks, the #2 player in the class of 2021, can score from almost anywhere on the court and has a great running mate in Randle. Randle, who’s a little underrated at #24, is a 6’9 power forward with offers from Detroit Mercy and Norfolk State. These two are the most physically dominant of the three.
