2023 6-3 F Ethan Willis – Illinois Bears 2023 Gunter
Ethan Willis is a reminder not to judge a book by its cover. Willis is a big body that at first glance looks like your typical slightly undersized power forward, but Ethan is much more than just a banger. He’s got a well-rounded skill set on both ends of the floor. Willis has nimble feet, able to take his man off the dribble and finish with skill. Ethan shoots the three well and is a formidable rebounder and sneaky good shot blocker. Willis totaled 17 points, 5 rebounds, 3 assists, 4 steals and 3 blocks.
2023 6-5 PF Garett Harrell – Illinois Bears Parr
It’s always refreshing to watch an old school post presence equipped with great footwork and a scoring touch. Grant Harrell had both on Friday. The big body came off the bench and scored with a hook shot and a pretty ball fake into a spin move. Harrell has polished moves and knows how to use his body to score inside.
