High Potential Senior Sleepers (Part 1)

I get calls or texts from Junior college coaches all the time asking for players who are under the radar and worth taking a chance on for the next level. Here are some Seniors who could go to the Junior College level and make a big impact down the line. [player_tooltip player_id="923006" first="Jevonte" last="Turner"], Knox Central - The reigning player of the year in the 13th region, Turner has had a decorated career for the Panthers and has mid major plus upside when he’s at his best. Just this week, Jevonte has had a triple double with nearly 40 points and has Knox looking like the team to beat again this season. Evan Fredrick, Southern - Like Turner, Evan is a 2021 reclass with a high ceiling as a prospect. At 6’9 and with the ability to stretch the floor with shooting, Fredrick is the type of player who can do some damage and eventually be an impact player at the D1 level. [player_tooltip player_id="1022244" first="Tony" last="Moss"], Doss - Tony is long and athletic with a solid skill set and the potential to be a D1 player down the line. Blessed with a great frame and physique, Moss can be a 3 or 4 in the right system and has the athleticism to switch across multiple positions on the defensive end. [player_tooltip player_id="1133840" first="Jaylen" last="Carter"], Waggener - Jaylen is one of the best scorers in the city of Louisville and could end up a D1 level shooter with the right amount of exposure against high level competition at a strong junior college. Carter reminds me of former Waggener guard DeVon Cooper and could have a similar college career before all is said and done. [player_tooltip player_id="1162620" first="Victor" last="Lado"], PRP - One of my favorite sleepers in the class, Big Vic gets better every time I see him. He’s a good finisher around the bucket and an above average rebounder who could get even better if he decided he wanted to go after more out of area rebounds. If I were a juco coach, I’m offering Lado and betting on his potential.
