Prep Hoops PA Rankings Update: WPIAL 2023 Newcomers

<p>As the AAU basketball season moves forward, our Prep Hoops Rankings update for the summer continues with the players from the class of 2023 in the state of Pennsylvania. The staff here at Prep Hoops PA has diligently gathered information and worked extremely hard to develop an extraordinarily comprehensive list of 400 high school basketball student-athletes. These rising seniors have the balance of talent to be the most heavily recruited group in a long time throughout the state. Many young men have been in constant communication with college coaches, while a variety of others are starting to garner attention as well. After the completion of the high school season and with AAU in full tournament mode, these skilled performers entered the rankings for our current update. </p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>WESTERN PA 2023 NEWCOMERS:</strong></span></p> <p>[player_tooltip player_id="1395953" first="Obadiah" last="Abdul"] / 6’1 / combo guard / Imani Christian High School </p> <ul> <li>His ability to provide leadership to his team is a definite solid positive asset </li> <li>Likes to be aggressive on the defensive end of the floor and do the little things for his team</li> <li>Obadiah has improved his overall game with constant work in the off-season</li> </ul> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Jonathan Anderson / 6’0 / point guard / New Castle High School </p> <ul> <li>He has the slick ball-handling skills and precision passing ability needed to compete at a high level in high school as in AAU games</li> <li>Watch for this young man to continue his rise on the scene for his senior season</li> <li>Jonathan is garnering a variety of offers and college interest </li> </ul> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>[player_tooltip player_id="1436504" first="Ethan" last="Anish"] / 6’0 / shooting guard / Allderdice High School </p> <ul> <li>This solid performer has a consistent jumper from the perimeter</li> <li>Looks to score off of screens and during transition throughout a competitive contest</li> <li>Ethan has jumped into the talk of sound and quality players this summer with high-level performances</li> </ul> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>[player_tooltip player_id="991394" first="Kam" last="Griel"] / 5’9 / point guard / Fox Chapel High School </p> <ul> <li>He is an excellent passer with the top-notch court awareness that creates scoring chances for his teammates</li> <li>Provides the leadership and unselfishness of a high-level point guard</li> <li>Kam is quick with his feet and hands which causes havoc on defense while using it to his advantage on the offensive end of the floor as well</li> </ul> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>[player_tooltip player_id="991363" first="Max" last="Leven"] / 6’8 / center / Franklin Regional High School </p> <ul> <li>This tough, big man can "take over" games in the post if given the opportunity</li> <li>Likes to own the paint on defense with quality rebounds and blocked shots as a rim protector</li> <li>Max has the size and strength to be a dominant player on the hardwood</li> </ul> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>[player_tooltip player_id="1186429" first="Zach" last="Oliver"] / 6’3 / wing forward / Blackhawk High School </p> <ul> <li>A skilled shooter from an extremely long distance beyond the three-point arc</li> <li>Enjoys playing with his teammates which is such a family atmosphere for young men</li> <li>Zach has developed his defense ability to match his offensive skill set</li> </ul> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>[player_tooltip player_id="1284792" first="Debaba" last="Tshiebwe"] / 6’6 / power forward / Central Catholic High School </p> <ul> <li>This is a proven big man in the paint on defense</li> <li>Likes to drop-set dunk on opponents</li> <li>Debaba looks to be a leader next season on the hardwood</li> </ul> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p>
