Dayton has the length and athleticism that coaches covet at the next level. He plays with a good motor and can finish through contact.
One of the best vertical athletes in the class, Decker often puts on a show in warmups. He averaged 17 and 8 this season for an Ohio County squad that had a good season with a disappointing finish. Elijah makes his living as a “modern basketball” aficionado in the sense that he lives on layups and threes. If he can score more in the midrange, his stock will keep trending up.
Antonio may be the most athletic kid in the state. As a result, his ceiling is also crazy high as a prospect. Williams needs to work to develop his left hand more because teams will take away his right. At 6’7, Antonio is capable of throwing the ball off the glass and dunking it in game and could end up D1 thanks to that crazy athleticism.
Another athletic wing who flourishes at attacking the rim, Hand is one of the best pure scorers in this position group. Jacob is very bouncy and an excellent finisher at the rim. To reach his prospect ceiling, he’ll need to improve his three point shooting numbers but Hand has the physical tools to play at the D1 level.
Bateman has been an impact player for Christian County for a few years now and averaged a double-double with 18 and 10 this season. Possibly one of the biggest sleeper prospects in the state, Derrell shot 44% from three this season and showed he is a true three level scorer. He’s an interesting one to track this spring and summer.
