Best Available (Wings)

The wing position is The latest small forward to verbally commit was [player_tooltip player_id='1241383' first='Eddie' last='Ricks III'], who selected Morehead State (verbally) August 23rd.  He will almost certainly sign to Morehead State University in November, at his first opportunity. The players in the second list, the 'Needs New Eval' bunch were sorted within these positional rankings very high, but without seeing them play on film or in-person in the last nine months there inclusion is not really fair to the players who we did see.  Phil Grant Jr., for example, is ranked #25 overall in Tennessee and he is probably a Top 10 small forward, but we simply do not know.  So, he is in the second list below. Who are the best wing forward prospects available in the Class of 2023? <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Small Forwards</strong></span> <ol> <li><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1039192' first='Jarred' last='Hall'] - </strong>The #1 overall player will be able to choose from a wide assortment of D1 programs thanks to his explosive, complete game.  Scores any way you want. Rebounds like a warrior.</li> <li><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1346844' first='Damarien' last='Yates'] - </strong>Breakout junior season for Fayette Ware.  He did have JaSteven Walker alongside (Alabama State freshman) though, so the burden will be much greater for "Dink" this winter.</li> <li><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1262887' first='Stephen' last='Olowoniyi'] - </strong>Absurdly bouncy. Elite second-jump ability.  Plans to officially visit UAB, MTSU, Little Rock, and ETSU.</li> <li><strong style="color: initial; font-family: var(--wp--preset--font-family--system-fonts);">[player_tooltip player_id='1495420' first='Ogbonna' last='Agbo']</strong> <strong>https://twitter.com/PrepHoopsTN/status/1562512364712652802?s=20&amp;t=mA3QoLWbHrlAuf7YFVSbzA </strong></li> <li><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1226062' first='Grant' last='Campbell']</strong></li> <li><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1028862' first='Keelan' last='Jackson']</strong></li> <li><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1267897' first='Alex' last='Vandenbergh']</strong></li> <li><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1495681' first='Jamarcus' last='Powell']</strong></li> <li><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1495685' first='Tyler' last='Johnson']</strong></li> <li><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1034399' first='Judah' last='Sault']</strong> - Elite rebounder. Wonderful finisher around the rim. Lacks the shooting range to be a Top 5 SF in the class.  It is probably the only skill that separates him from a Top 20 player overall in Tennessee.</li> <li><strong>Zachariah LaBoo Jr.</strong></li> <li><b>Kevin Lusk - </b>Might be a SG at the college level.  Hard-charging, versatile wing. Plays and defends very well at high speeds.</li> <li><b>[player_tooltip player_id='1263008' first='Wizdom' last='Laws'] </b></li> <li>Joshua Roberts -Elite athleticism. Elite defense around the arc.  Needs to improve his handle and shooting-off-the-dribble.</li> <li><b>[player_tooltip player_id='1400749' first='Collin' last='France'] -</b> Wonderful strength. High-academic recruit. Looks to be a college player with lovely wingspan and bounce for the position.  Very disciplined in both off-season conditioning.</li> <li><b>[player_tooltip player_id='1028857' first='Quintus' last='Broadnax'] --</b> coming off ACL surgery. Great strength. A little limited skill-wise compared to other Top 30 SF's.</li> <li><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1346893' first='Gage' last='Boykin']</strong></li> <li><b>[player_tooltip player_id='1136123' first='Riley' last='Everett']</b></li> <li><b>[player_tooltip player_id='1346460' first='Matthew' last='Clemmer']</b></li> <li><b>[player_tooltip player_id='1495470' first='Max' last='Elliot']</b></li> <li><b>[player_tooltip player_id='1261389' first='Tucker' last='Monroe'] </b></li> <li><b>[player_tooltip player_id='1317046' first='Caleb' last='Cothron']</b></li> <li><b>[player_tooltip player_id='1370813' first='Tate' last='Russell'] </b></li> <li><b>[player_tooltip player_id='1416545' first='Dallas' last='Carbaugh'] -</b> Impressive catch-and-shoot guy.
