PH Top 250: Top Wings/Posts
Anthony Peters
In this article:
<p>I spent last weekend in Louisville checking out some of the talent in the Bluegrass State. Similar to the Ohio Expo last weekend, I will highlight some of my top performers starting today with Bigs and Wings. There are different guys from different age groups as you will see below. </p>
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="1009763" first="Gavin" last="Allen"]</strong> (2022) 6’10 Lynn Camp</p>
<p>Allen was definitely the biggest guy in the gym for the Expo. Knows how to use that large frame and just tough on the interior. Soft touch around the rim and finished at a high level around traffic. Unselfish for a big and made some good passes to cutters out of the post. Overall a solid prospect for an in-state school looking for a big.</p>
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="1287889" first="Zane" last="Whitaker"]</strong> (2024) 6’5 Magoffin County</p>
<p>Whitaker is a younger prospect on this list, but performed at a high level that earns the spot here. Skinny but good length. Impressed me with his hustle on the defensive end and on the glass. Particularly impressed with a beautifully timed block off the backboard on a breakaway. As he fills his frame, could be a target for some D2/NAIA programs.</p>
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="1287895" first="Devonte" last="McCampbell"]</strong> (2022) 6’5 Daviess County</p>
<p>McCampbell wasn’t the biggest player on display for this event, but he had some of the better mechanics than other players on this list. Great body control under the rim. Utilized the pump fake and strong takes to create some offensive opportunities for himself. Moved well without the ball and made good cuts to the rim. Can bring some inside-out flare to the table.</p>
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="1228481" first="Will" last="Gibson"]</strong> (2024) 6’5 DeSales</p>
<p>Gibson doesn’t look like a typical post yet, but the lefty has a lot of toughness that’s hard to match. Good length and footwork. Performed a nice 2K caliber spin move with the ball out on the perimeter. Showed confidence when he was outside the paint and just appears to be a prospect with upside as he too fills his frame.</p>
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="1288999" first="Bul" last="Chol"]</strong> (2022) 6’6 Fern Creek</p>
<p>Chol was the best performing prospect in terms of wings in the event. The 6-foot-6 senior is very long and an elite ball-handler. Unselfish and always looking to make the extra pass. Defensively understands the right shifts on man-to-man help side and communicates. Could be a target for D3s looking for a late 2022.</p>
