- The Return of Will Gavin Will Gavin 6'1" | CG St. Thomas Aquinas | 2022 State KS : The 6’3 Aquinas point guard was off to a tremendous start in his junior campaign before going out with an injury. He was been patiently waiting and should be making his return to the court in June. The gifted ball handler, space creator, shot maker, and distributer will be looking to get back to form and se the tone for an Aquinas team with a ton of potential. Also look for Gavin to have a huge summer back on the grassroots circuit.
- Joey Robinson Joey Robinson 6'1" | CG Blue Valley Northwest | 2022 State KS taking the reigns: Robinson will be taking the reigns in the back court for Blue Valley Northwest with the departure of Alston Mason Alston Mason 6'2" | CG Blue Valley Northwest | 2021 State KS and a new coaching staff taking over. Robinson has had a solid spring with Team Yobo and is a real tough competitor, good shooter of the basketball, and will have no trouble being the leader BVNW needs. Expect a strong end of the spring, June school run, and July back on the grassroots scene.
- Nahcs Wahwassuck Nahcs Wahwassuck 6'5" | CG Royal Valley | 2022 State KS headed to Link Academy: The talented 6’5 Point Guard has accomplished quite a bit in the Big 7 and at Royal Valley. His transfer to Link Academy for his senior season and joining the new elite high school program out there will be fun to watch. Wahwassuck had a tremendous start to the spring but was hampered with a rough lower back injury that he has since recovered from. This spring on the grassroots scene he average almost 14 points per game and added 5 assists, and 4 rebounds per game on over 50% shooting.
- Elijah Brooks Elijah Brooks 6'3" | CG Topeka West | 2022 State KS returning for state runner up 5A Topeka West: The athletic scoring guard will be the most impactful player from last year’s roster that made it to the 5A state championship game returning. Brooks has had some solid games this spring in the outings and box scores I was able to catch throughout the spring in tournaments. There will be a lot of young talent getting an increased role next year, and Brooks will have to help get them up to speed. Brooks could get a big stock bump with a solid June and July.
