Dillon Fountain Dillon Fountain 6'0" | SG Perspectives | 2025 IL 2025 The Work Foundation (Perspectives)
Dillon is an active two-way guard that gets after it on both ends. He was very effective with his on ball defense, getting back tap steals and turning them into points. Dillon went on an 8-0 scoring spree hitting two threes and getting to the line for free throws. He’s a solid prospect to keep track of going forward.
Jalen Bealer 2024 Team Dynasty (West Aurora)
Jalen is an improving scoring guard that can get his shot off in many fashions. Bealer was able to finish with both hands at the rim when the opposing team packed the paint. Jalen made shots from the three-point line as teams pressed up on him to run him off the line He hit mid-range shots to further his point that he’s a bucket.
Marcus Everhart Marcus Everhart 6'5" | PF Bloom Township | 2024 State IL 2024 GPA (Marian Catholic)
I once saw Marcus at the Pangos camp and to see that he still played with a high motor was exciting to see. Everhart is a natural rim protector that plays at a high motor consistently. Marcus is very bouncy and does a great job at timing missed shots on the offensive end.
Donte Montgomery Donte Montgomery 6'2" | SG Oak Lawn | 2025 State IL 2025 The Work Foundation (Oak Lawn)
Montgomery is a slick guard who does a good job at getting to the rim score easy buckets. Donte scored with precision, getting layups and getting to the free throw line often through the game. He’s a young guard who plays up a level with his team, which helps him for varsity basketball the next school season.
Christopher Kirkpatrick Christopher Kirkpatrick 6'3" | PG New Trier | 2026 State IL 2026 Fundamental U (New Trier)
Kirkpatrick had a strong performance against team Rose. While down double digits, Christopher hit multiple threes and made strong straight-line drives to the rim. He played with confidence against a team filled with the top players in his class.
Jerome Delaney Jerome Delaney 6'3" | SG OPRF | 2026 State IL 2026 AR Elite (Fenwick)
Jerome is a bigger guard that makes scoring look easy because he has so much poise. Delaney can get to the rim with a tight handle and finish with either hand. If teams sit back to make him a shooter he knocks down the shot. His understanding of the game is strong and PHI will continue to monitor his progress going forward.
