Leontae Lilly Leontae Lilly 5'8" | PG Orr | 2022 State IL (Orr)
Absolutely positively the best performance we have ever seen from Lilly. The point guard was spectacular with his shot making from the jump. Drained threes and mid-range pull ups off the bounce over and over again! It was a straight show and there wasn’t much Tinley Park could do about it. Also showed off his speed in the open floor end to end. Went for 26 points. Smaller guard will be a nice find for a D3, NAIA, or JUCO.
Cam Lawin Cam Lawin 6'5" | SF Orr | 2022 State IL (Orr)
Lawin is a prospect we hadn’t seen in quite some time due to injuries and fell down the board because of it. Man was he impressive. Long and rangy small forward with an elite three point stroke as he connected on six of them in the win. Would like to see him do a little more going forward in other areas, but the shooting, positional size, and athleticism make him super intriguing at the D2 level. Netted 20 points!
Cam Cleveland Cam Cleveland 6'2" | CG Leo Catholic | 2022 IL (Leo)
Cleveland has shot up height wise and added some strength since we last saw him in person. He had some flashes for Leo against Curie draining a pair of threes along with pushing off his defense converting acrobatic layups at the rim. Finished with 12 points and would be a nice small college prospect!
Phoenix Bullock Phoenix Bullock 6'1" | SG Curie | 2022 State IL (Curie)
Bullock is such a smooth two guard in the senior class. He has become the primary ball handler and scorer from the perimeter for Curie early in the season. Made several nice finishes in transition along with banking in a jumper. Could be a value play at the JUCO level maybe boosting his stock. Small college would get a steal in Bullock.
Anthony McGhee Anthony McGhee 6'3" Notre Dame College Prep | 2022 IL (Niles Notre Dame)
McGhee is a prospect that is intriguing to us. Two guard with nice size and athleticism that can really shoot it off the catch. Really like him as a small college sleeper!
Mikell Jones Mikell Jones 6'3" | SF Michelle Clark | 2022 State IL (Michelle Clark)
Jones was a man among boys in the final game of the event. Physical forward that plays bully ball. He took it right at the defense over and over for finishes in the paint, put backs, and strong takes. Runs the floor and scores in transition. Love him as a combo forward at a JUCO or small college! He scored 22 points.
Mikqwon Jones Mikqwon Jones 6'3" | SF Michelle Clark | 2022 State IL (Michelle Clark)
The other Jones was an effective player as well. He scored on spinning layups and physical slashes in the half court. Good defender that brings versatility on that end of the floor and hit a three. Threw a couple nice outlet passes as well off his defense. Finished with 13 points. He and his brother are going to be a nice get for a small college or JUCO.
Sulaimon Agiste Sulaimon Agiste 6'8" | C Michelle Clark | 2022 State IL (Michelle Clark)
Agiste is among the more interesting project posts in the class. Long and thin five that has some ability on the defensive end swatting and contesting shots with mobility to switch. Offensively he had a put back and a couple big dunks. D2 looking to swing for the fences with good academics would be wise to invest some evaluation time here.
