Nation
IL
(Kenwood)
Current Ranking: #2
Alston is a point-power forward that can stretch the floor with a lethal three point shot. Best spotting up with a quick release. Can also run into them in transition. Also his passing ability at 6’9” is a huge strength of his game. Sees over defenders and makes on the point passes at a high clip. When he is really going will post up using quick soft touch finishing moves for scores. Brings defensive versatility being able to switch onto different positions.

#164
Nation
IL
(Chi-Prep)
Current Ranking: #4
Jones is an athletic power forward that plays with a relentless motor. The four man from Chi-Prep rebounds at a super high level. That is his biggest strength at this stage of the process. Volume rebounder and tough post defender that is a quality shot blocker coming from the weakside. Offensively he is a high level offensive rebounder, runs the floor well, and can post up with strength. Flashes as a shooter.

(Metea Valley)
Current Ranking: #10
Nosek made a massive leap up the board! The Metea Valley post lit up the June evaluation periods with the way he shot it at his size. Floor spacer that drained threes in bunches especially off the catch. Shot it at an extremely high level from deep. Lanky five that blocks shots, rebounds, and has some touch around the hoop.
Jonah Funk

El Paso Gridley | 2025
State
IL
(El Paso Gridley)
Current Ranking: #12
Funk is a bouncy power forward that caught our attention back in the fall at the Top 250 camp and continued to intrigue during the high school season. Lanky post that rim runs, knocks down open shots facing up, and can really block shots. Like his upside a ton and honestly could be slightly higher we just haven’t seen him since February.
Nick Allen

Bradley Bourbonnais | 2025
State
IL
(Bradley Bourbonnais)
Current Ranking: #13
Allen is a five man that has nice size and is a crafty low post scorer. Skilled kid with good strength that scores on the block with his footwork and sound post moves. Good area rebounder and positional defender.
Jonas Johnson
Jonas
Johnson
6'6" | PF
DePaul Prep | 2025
State
IL
(DePaul Prep)
Current Ranking: #14
Johnson has been out with an injury so we weren’t able to see him this summer, but there is a lot to like in his game. Skilled four man that can shoot it from three with an above average shot from the perimeter. Good rebounder and passer.
Jayden Miles (Chi-Prep)
Current Ranking: #15
Miles is a new addition to the state as the bouncy five from Kentucky moved here to attend Chi-Prep. We have seen him with the Mac Irvin Fire where the bouncy post proved to be an offensive rebounder, rim runner, and dive threat. Potential on the defensive end to be a quality shot blocker.
