<p> </p>
<p>We dive into the positional rankings. We now look at the small forwards for the graduating senior class. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Here are the top-10 SF’s in the 2022 class: (Deep group of SF’s--All 10 in the Top-43. Many of them with incredible size for position.)</p>
<p>[player_tooltip player_id="870211" first="Kamari" last="Lands"] <strong>Hillcrest Prep</strong></p>
<p>An all-around three level scorer with elite size and length. He can create his own offense from the perimeter plus pull-up from mid to the 3. He plays above the rim on the break and uses his dimensions to defend. He is headed to <strong>Louisville</strong>. </p>
<p>[player_tooltip player_id="809672" first="Jason" last="Elder"] <strong>Phhoenix Prep </strong></p>
<p>A high motored wing forward who has improved his all-around game in the last year. He rebounds at a high level and plays the point forward for them in spurts. He hits the 3, has the pull-up and he is a plus athlete. He is headed to <strong>Georgia</strong>. </p>
<p>[player_tooltip player_id="1011614" first="Garrett" last="Anderson"] <strong>Phhoenix Prep </strong></p>
<p>A high flyer with an incredible vertical. He grew nearly five inches in the last two years or so and it has helped his game. He has deep 3pt range and runs like a track kid in the open court with long strides. He has 1-2 highlight reel dunks a game. He is headed to <strong>San Jose State</strong>. </p>
<p>[player_tooltip player_id="850711" first="Joshua" last="Ola-Joseph"] <strong>AZ Compass Prep</strong></p>
<p>A physical inside and out threat. He comes off the bench and gives them much needed toughness to score in the post and can step out and hit the 3. He has unusually long arms to defend and rebound. He is headed to <strong>Minnesota</strong>. </p>
<p>[player_tooltip player_id="1305225" first="Quincy" last="Adams"] <strong>Hamilton </strong></p>
<p>Easily one of the top AIA unsigned players is Adams. He is a popular player to film with highlights in every game he plays. He has a knack for getting to the basket better then maybe anyone in the state, even if you know he is going to do it, he is still hard to contain. The lefty has easy bounce and he rebounds at a high level with a quick second jump and makes perimeter shots. </p>
<p>[player_tooltip player_id="973910" first="Luke" last="Kearney"] <strong>Bella Vista Prep (Pictured) </strong></p>
<p>An improved forward from Sandra Day O'Connor who can really shoot it. The sniper has one of the strokes that looks good in every attempt. He has become stronger and more athletic. The high academic forward can play above the rim on the break and uses his thicker frame to rebound. </p>
<p>[player_tooltip player_id="936761" first="Nathaniel" last="Knight"] <strong>AZ Compass Prep</strong></p>
<p>A strong built high flying forward flies on the break. He can hit the 3 with some success plus get to the paint and score through contact. He rebounds well and can push the ball up the court. </p>
<p>[player_tooltip player_id="827019" first="Ringo" last="Aguek"] <strong>Ironwood </strong></p>
<p>Another big wing on the list has the size and the length. He slowly came back from a big injury that kept him out his junior year. He can hit the 3, rip through and get to the basket and rebounds well in his area. Once he is fully recovered from his injury, watch out! </p>
<p>[player_tooltip player_id="973813" first="Jayson" last="Petty"] <strong>Phhoenix Prep</strong></p>
<p>The lone under sized small forward on the list. He has become the classic 3 and D type for college. His 3pt stroke is compact and consistent all year long. He has long arms for his height and moves his feet well laterally. </p>
<p>[player_tooltip player_id="827016" first="Jason" last="Parent"] <strong>Prescott </strong></p>
<p>A talented wing forward can play many positions from the 1-4 for the Badgers. He is one of the better passers on the list but is asked to score to keep pace with the Phoenix teams often. He can score from all three levels and he is another high academic player. </p>
