<p>Prep Hoops Missouri takes a look at the top Class of 2021 forwards from the second session of the Fall Elite Camp in St. Charles, MO, which was presented by head coach Kyle Gerdeman and his staff at Lindenwood University. This was a very talented and deep group of players at this particular position.</p> <p>[player_tooltip player_id="824180" first="Lance" last="Hackney"] Jr. 6’7" Lutheran-St. Charles: A robust post player who was very assertive around the basket as he moved people around like furniture. He finished well with both hands around the basket and showcased a nice jumper over the left shoulder. He also displayed a new and improved 3-point shot off the catch.</p> <p>[player_tooltip player_id="824210" first="Drake" last="Stevenson"] 6’6" Fort Zumwalt North: A solid all-purpose player who showcased how he can help his team succeed in a variety of ways. He can make plays as a passing threat, hustle out of his area for loose balls and rebounds and hit open 3-pointers.</p> <p>[player_tooltip player_id="824189" first="Logan" last="Wich"] 6’7" Parkway West: Logan is a strong, solid power forward who was very productive because he has skill and toughness. He can score on strong takes to the basket off the dribble and offensive put-backs. If you leave him open, he will knock down an open Corner 3.</p> <p>Nathan Hall 6’8" Collinsville (IL): A skilled combo forward from metro east St. Louis who has the ability to stretch the defense with his 3-point shooting. He hit some nice trail 3's during the evening. He is also very good in the post where he uses his mobility and finesse to make things happen. His passing skills are also very effective.</p> <p>[player_tooltip player_id="824168" first="Aaron" last="Hendricks"] 6’7" MICDS: The athletic southpaw was very active around the basket with his rebounding, shot blocking and dunking. When he is assertive offensively, he is a problem because he can also put the ball on the floor and drive from the high post and finish well.</p> <p>[player_tooltip player_id="985217" first="Shelton" last="Flanigan"] 6’6" Miller Career Academy: A very athletic combo forward who was a matchup problem with his overall versatility and skills. He is an excellent rebounder who can get a bucket in the paint. He also showed his ability to handle the ball as a playmaker and knock down 3-pointers.</p> <p>Deandre Lockett 6’6" Medicine and Bio Science: An impressive looking power forward who I saw for the first time. He is physically strong and he uses that strength to rebound effectively and score around the basket. He catches the ball in traffic well. He was also a very effective screener.</p> <p>Carter Knuckles 6’4" Lindbergh: The bouncy combo forward had one of the highlight plays of the evening when he threw down an impressive dunk off the drive over a bigger defender. It showcased his athleticism and high motor. He attacked the basket whenever possible and played a very fearless game.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p>
