#10
Sam Marinucci
Sam Marinucci
Marinucci is a talented guard that could make some noise in Ann Arbor this high school season. He’s a pesky defender that brings energy to that end. Marinucci has a nice jumper with 3 point range and can hit a catch and shoot triple in transition.
#9
Lucas Nor
Lucas Nor
Nor has shown that he can have some big breakout games already and I wouldn’t be surprised if that happens even more regularly this coming high school season. He’s a comfortable shooter that can really hit a groove with his jumper. Nor is the type of big shot shooter that you want with the ball when your team needs a bucket.
#8
James Kendzicky
James Kendzicky
Kendzicky is a high upside guard. He’s a very good all around athlete and a multi sport star. Kendzicky has made his mark with his shooting so far in his high school career. He’s a confident shooter that can get his jumper off quickly. Kendzicky has some versatility as well with the ability to handle the ball and play either guard spot.
#7
Reed Yuhas
Reed Yuhas
Yuhas is a nice lead guard that can set the table for teammates in addition to scoring himself. He has a jumper with 3 point range and can score from multiple levels. Yuhas features a nice mid range game where he rises up for his jumper and can get it off in traffic. He also has nice touch on his floater. Yuhas has shown the ability to push the pace with the pass up the floor.
#6
Adam Samaha
Adam Samaha
Samaha is a talented athlete that is committed as a kicker to play football at the University of Michigan. Needless to say his offensive and defensive footwork are special on the basketball court. Samaha will be one of, if not the best, shooters in Ann Arbor this coming high school season. He can flat out get red hot from behind the arc, drilling them both off the dribble and the catch.
#5
Jaydon Keefer
Jaydon Keefer
Keefer is an exciting young prospect with a ton of upside. He’s turned some heads with some very solid grassroots performances and has a lot of people in the Ann Arbor area very excited. Keefer is a smooth athlete that can make plays in the open floor. He’s fun to watch when he fills a wing in transition.
#4
Bennett-Cole is a shifty guard that could make a ton of noise in Ann Arbor this winter. He has a quick first step and can handle the ball with both hands. Bennett-Cole has good court vision and creativity with his passes. I like when he takes the ball into traffic in the lane and dumps or dishes to teammates in scoring positions.
Highlights
#3
Moore is a difference maker in many ways for Ann Arbor Huron. He’s the type of lead guard the college coaches are definitely going to want to take a look at. He’s a terrific ball handler with straight line and lateral speed with the ball in his hands. Moore can play at a high speed and push the pace both off the bounce or with the pass. He can fire up and bury a triple at any time.
#2
Let’s start off by saying that this young man has a very legitimate argument to be #1. It could probably go either way. Dickerson has as much upside and recruitability as anybody in the city of Ann Arbor. He’s a natural slasher that attacks the rim off the bounce. He’s a high percentage finisher that can keep control in traffic around the rim.
Highlights
#1
Potts has some of that big time flare to him and his game. He’s going to be tough to stop for Ann Arbor and Ann Arbor area opponents this winter. Potts is an athletic scorer that can make plays and create opportunities when the ball is in his hands. He’s excellent in the open floor, either leading the break or filling in for a finish.
