Deangelo Jones Deangelo Jones 5'9" Plainfield North | 2023 IL (Plainfield North – 2023)

Jones is a smaller guard that is a tremendous glue guy.  He did the little things on both ends and showed he was willing to help out in a variety of areas.

Jason Lawani Jason Lawani 6'5" | SF Bolingbrook | 2024 State IL (Bolingbrook – 2024)

Coach Brost always seems to have high energy and versatile players on both ends of the floor.  That is exactly what this 6’3” small forward brings.  Super high-motor player that is excellent in the open floor, gets to the foul line, and defends.

Lorenzo Aquino Lorenzo Aquino 5'10" | PG Lane Tech | 2023 IL (Lane Tech – 2023)

Aquino really shot it well from the perimeter in the games that we saw him play hitting threes in bunches.
