<!-- wp:separator --> <hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity"/> <!-- /wp:separator --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The 2023 class is starting to take shape as Patrick School forward <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='992512' first='Seck' last='Zongo']</strong> committed to Northern Illinois earlier in the week. Zongo has the potential to play either the three or the four due to his combination of strength and athleticism. Here are the top available power forwards in the 2023 class.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:separator --> <hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity"/> <!-- /wp:separator --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='992524' first='Aaron' last='Bradshaw']</strong>, <strong>7'0 Camden</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Bradshaw pushed back his commitment, making his recruitment process one of the more intriguing ones in the Garden State. The lanky 7-footer runs the floor hard, creating easy layups and dunks for himself in transition. Bradshaw has a solid face-up game as he can put the ball on the floor and knock down jumpers on the perimeter. He swats almost everything around the rim and rips down rebounds at both ends of the floor. Bradshaw is a premier shot-blocker who will be one to watch in 2022-23.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1400487' first='Ladji' last='Dembele']</strong>, <strong>6'8 St. Benedict's</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Dembele is one of the top forward prospects in the Garden State and he put it on display with the NY Rens. The 6'8 forward knows how to get position in the paint and has a soft touch around the basket. Dembele can play on the perimeter as he has a nice release on his jumper and shoots the ball with confidence from the perimeter. He is tough to box out on both ends of the floor and uses his length to alter shots around the basket. Dembele was recently offered by DePaul and his recruitment will be one to monitor this fall and winter.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1456812' first='Cyril' last='Martynov'], 6'10 Lawrenceville</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Martynov had a strong summer with UPlay Canada as he pulled in multiple offers with his play at Peach Jam. The 6'10 forward finishes strong above the rim and does not mind drawing contact around the basket. Martynov has a solid handle, which he uses to get into the paint and can knock down jumpers in the mid-range. He rips down rebounds at both ends of the floor and is a good passer. Martynov recently took a visit to Georgia Tech and has the potential to re-class into 2022, making him one to closely monitor over the next couple of weeks.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1013041' first='David' last='Luberoff'], 6'9 Blair Academy</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Luberoff is one to watch as he impacts the game in a variety of ways. The 6'9 forward has a nice release on his jumper and sets his feet before he shoots. Luberoff can get to the rim off the bounce and is capable of finishing through contact. He is a big-time shot-blocker around the basket and fights for rebounds on both ends of the floor. Luberoff's ability to block shots and knock down jumpers from distance is something that makes him an intriguing prospect in the 2023 class.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1013065' first='Ian' last='Imegwu'], 6'8 Blair Academy</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Imegwu has had a good summer with the Buccaneers and [program_tooltip program_id='2078590' first='Team' last='Rio'] University, which should carry over into the high school season. The 6'8 lefty is comfortable on the perimeter as he has a good shooting stroke and shoots the ball with confidence. Imegwu has a nice touch around the basket and can draw contact in the paint. He holds his ground on the defensive end and is a solid rebounder. Imegwu picked up an offer from Rider in June and should see more offers come his way with more strong performances.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Other Prospects to Watch:</span></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1150270' first='Tyler' last='Koenig'], 6'9 DePaul Catholic</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='609754' first='Darrius' last='Phillips'], 6'7 Seton Hall Prep</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1150271' first='Jordan' last='Summers'], 6'7 Bound Brook</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1401559' first='Parker' last='Neuenhaus'], 6'9 Saddle River Day</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1013095' first='Jayden' last='Holmes-Cotter'], 6'6 Freehold Township</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
