Daniel Johnson

Whitney Young | 2023

Nation
IL
(Whitney Young)
Overall Ranking: #17
Johnson is one of the top uncommitted players remaining on the board heading into the season. Long and lanky three and D wing that has struggled with injuries. When he is playing he can be a productive three point shooter and perimeter defender checking multiple spots. Low-majors should be on him.
Nikola Abusara

Benet | 2023

(Benet)
Overall Ranking: #28
Abusara was one of my favorites to watch this summer. His versatility, tenacity, and intangibles are top notch. One of the best role players for the next level available as he is a plus defender that can guard an array of positions and is an athletic finisher. Such a good connector as a passer too. Low-major D1s need to be monitoring him.
Bryce Coleman

Coleman

Proviso East | 2023
State
IL
(Proviso East)
Overall Ranking: #29
Coleman is a big wing that has positional size and strength. He proved this summer with the Illinois Stars he could knock down shots with more consistency especially from mid-range. Good rebounder and has a chance to be a steal for a low-major program.
Xavier Sulaiman

Sulaiman

Oak Lawn | 2023
State
IL
(Oak Lawn)
Overall Ranking: #30
Sulaiman was a standout on the Prep Hoops Circuit with his athleticism throwing down monster dunks on the regular along with showing range on his shot. Creative handle and finishing tools off the bounce.
David Douglas
David
Douglas
6'5" | SG
Yorkville Christian | 2023
State
IL
(Yorkville Christian)
Overall Ranking: #31
Douglas is primed for a big senior season posting huge numbers at Yorkville Christian. Playing on a state title team last year and with a talented Breakaway squad he proved he can fit in while providing a spark on the offensive end as a microwave scorer while using his length defensively.
Jaloni Johnson
Jaloni
Johnson
6'3" | SG
Proviso East | 2023
State
IL
(Proviso East)
Overall Ranking: #32
Johnson is a super smooth offensive threat. He is creative with the rock in his hands while also being able to knock down pull ups from two and three at a good clip. Low-majors and D2s should take a look.
Evan Jackson
Evan
Jackson
6'7" | SF
De La Salle Institute | 2023
State
IL
(De La Salle)
Overall Ranking: #42
Jackson is a big wing that has a lot of projectability to his game. He can score from multiple levels with his jumper and covers a lot of ground on both ends with his long strides.
Kyle Olagbegi
Kyle
Olagbegi
6'5" | SF
Lincoln Way East | 2023
State
IL
(Lincoln Way East)
Overall Ranking: #48
Olagbegi took his game to new heights this summer with the Illinois T-Wolves. Tenacious downhill slasher that wins off the bounce and plays above the rim in transition. Excellent multi positional defender and rebounds at a high rate for a wing. D2s would be wise to get in here!
