Continue ReadingThe Junior class rankings have expanded all the way out to nearly 130 players already. This is possibly the best class of prospects since Prep Hoops Kentucky launched. A dozen prospects already have D1 offers and twice that many could have D1 offers a year from now. Here’s a look at the best power forwards and posts in the updated 2023 Rankings.
Tyson Barrett Tyson Barrett 6'8" | PF Frederick Douglass | 2023 FL , Frederick Douglass – Barrett is a long and athletic 4 man who is still working on transitioning to being a wing. Tyson is a fantastic rebounder and plays above the rim on offense. He should be one of the best players in the 11th region this season.
Christian Collins Christian Collins 6'8" | PF Breathitt County | 2023 State KY , Breathitt County – Christian is a lot like Tyson as he’s an athletic 6’8 4/5 whose skills could eventually put him on the perimeter some. Collins transferred from Buckhorn and should make Breathitt a top 25 team this season and a contender to make a run at Rupp in March.
Trent Edwards Trent Edwards 6'8" | PF George Rogers Clark | 2023 State KY , George Rogers Clark – Trent, like Christian and Tyson, is a 2022 who is using the extra year to keep getting stronger and developing his wing skills. Edwards is long and a very fluid athlete with a high ceiling as a prospect and continues to improve as a ball handler and shooter.
Jaden Biggers Jaden Biggers 6'6" | PF Bryan Station | 2023 State KY , Bryan Station – Biggers is a candidate for biggest breakout in the 11th region if he has a regular season like how his summer went. Jaden is very young for the 23 class and has a high ceiling as a prospect. He could have a double-double every night out this season if he can avoid foul trouble.
Chandler Starks Chandler Starks 6'6" | C Anderson | 2023 State OH , Covington Catholic – Chandler is a strong post with the ability to post up or face up on offense. Cov Cath actually runs some offense through him in the high post at times. Starks is also a good rebounder and knows how to use his big frame to carve out space on both ends of the court.
