CJ O’Hara CJ O’Hara 6’4″ | SF Park Center | 2023 State #285 Nation MN is a six-foot-four-inch guard from Park Center (Formerly of Hopkins) that is 3-level scorer and good secondary ball-handler. O’Hara is dynamic in the open floor, fluid body, he finishes with authority and easily above the rim. He’s a strong, able defender at either the guard position and can defend Wing position.
Patrick Bath Patrick Bath 6’9″ | C Totino Grace | 2023 State MN is a six-foot-nine-inch forward Totino-Grace. Bath is an efficient scorer in the painted area with good footwork, and a soft touch. He has an over-the-shoulder one-hand post-up shot. He runs the floor, and is an active rebounder. He was recently offered by Citadel.
Khalif Bettis Khalif Bettis 6’6″ | SF Burnsville | 2023 State MN is a six-foot-five-inch guard from Burnsville. Bettis plays offense like a scoring guard, on defense he’s versitle enough to guard the two or three. Offensively Bettis scores inside and out. His jump shot is ever improving with more and more confidence. His creates mismatches with his size versus smaller guards, like here where he posts up and shoots over the defender.
JJ Ware JJ Ware 6’6″ | SF Park Center | 2023 State MN is a six-foot-six-inch wing from Park Center that has been waiting for his opportunity to more of a focal point. For his Senior year, Ware appears ready to showcase a full table of skills. Size and versility are Ware’s greatest strengths as his length creates problems for opposing players. On the perimeter Ware uses length to sidestep defenders when driving and when without the ball, rebounds on the offensive glass. When defended by larger defenders Ware can play pick and pop with guards like CJ O’Hara CJ O’Hara 6’4″ | SF Park Center | 2023 State #285 Nation MN and Casmir Chavis Casmir Chavis 6’2″ | PG Park Center | 2024 State #170 Nation MN .
Isaiah Hagen Isaiah Hagen 6’3″ | PG Orono | 2023 State MN is a six-foot-three-inch guard from Orono. Hagen had a strong spring and summer playing AAU with Minnesota Select that saw his presence on the Prep Hoops rankings move almost 20 spots. Hagen is lead guard that can do whatever it is his team needs from him in a leading position. Like last season his team needed a big scoring output so he put up 44-points versus Chanhassen in quite the back and fourth game with Maxwell Woods Maxwell Woods 5’10” | PG Chanhassen | 2024 MN . Strong dribble pull-up game, very solid catch and shoot 3-point shooter, and good vision to find teammates.
Highlights
Lincoln Palbicki Lincoln Palbicki 6’10” | C Maple Grove | 2023 State MN is a six-foot-ten-inch Center from Maple Grove high school. Palbicki since his Freshman year has shown an ability to pop to the perimeter and make jumpers. Size is Palbicki’s strong skill as he uses his big body to muscle smaller players out of the lane and out rebound smaller opponents. Palbicki has nimble feet and a soft touch around the basket as well. On post-ups Palbicki has a good right baby hook.
Ibrahim El-Amin Ibrahim El-Amin 5’10” | PG Minnetonka | 2023 State MN is a five-foot-ten-inch guard from Minnetonka. Ibo plays the game with speed and quickness. Ibo keeps opponents on their toes as if they’re not ready he’ll blow past with the dribble or fire from thecon outside. El-Amin goes to his bag mostly off the ball as a secondary guard. Dribble pull-up, face-up catch and shoot, and dribble pentatration.
