#8 | Tyrell Ward Tyrell Ward 6'7" | SF DeMatha | 2022 State #56 Nation MD | DeMatha
It’s uncommon to talk about a top-10 guy as a breakout candidate, but Ward is just scratching the surface. He’s shown signs here and there that he can be a difference-maker on both ends, which means expectations will be high. Ward has matured nicely and should be able to handle the additional responsibility.
#32 | Adam Angwafo Adam Angwafo 6'7" | C Bullis | 2022 State MD | Bullis
Angwafo has physical tools that can’t be taught. At 6-foot-7, he has the potential to guard virtually every position on the floor. When things completely click for Angwafo, he could become one of the most sought after recruits in the area.
#40 | Travis Roberts Travis Roberts 6'5" | SG Bishop Walsh | 2022 State MD | Bishop Walsh
Roberts is a premium bucket-getter with size and athleticism to boot. Bishop Walsh will need him to score consistently but also hold his own defensively against stiff competition. If he is able to do that, there’s no reason why he can’t play at the highest level of college basketball.
#60 | Shaquille Samuels Shaquille Samuels 6'6" | PF Mt. Zion Prep | 2022 State MD | Avalon
Samuels is a powerhouse on the wing with a robust physical profile and an underrated skill set. He is already playing at a high level this winter and is a safe bet to continue doing so. If you’re into versatile players that can fill a myriad of roles, Samuels is your guy.
#63 | Jeremiah Littlejohn Jeremiah Littlejohn 6'4" | SF Rock Creek Christian | 2022 State MD | Rock Creek Christian
Littlejohn is a long, athletic wing that oozes upside. He should continue to improve as his rangy frame continues to fill out.
