MJ Stackhouse figures to be one of the most dominant frontcourt players in the state this winter after putting up 22.2 points and 9.1 rebounds per game as a junior. At 6’7+ he’s such an explosive athlete and also has a strong frame which allows him to dominate around the rim. He can quickly get up to throw down dunks, and is a force on the glass on both ends of the floor. MJ’s ability to quickly get off the floor makes him a big time shot blocker as well. Would like to see him get a bit more efficient on the perimeter, but he continues to show flashes of shot creation and outside shooting.
Eric seemingly came out of nowhere to take home Kenosha County Player of the Year as a junior. He put up some huge scoring totals which included a 51 point outburst at the state tournament! Kenesie is an offensive weapon as he can score from just about any spot on the floor, and is so crafty off the ball finding ways to get himself into open space for shots/lay-ups. He’s a flash in transition as he can push the ball so quickly to beat every other player up the floor. Works hard defending on the ball and is capable of forcing turnovers that he turns into offense on the other end. Eric just has natural basketball instincts, and it allowed him to average 22.7 points and 6.2 assists per game as a junior.
You won’t find many, if any, better passers in the state than Elijah Griffin Elijah Griffin 6’1″ | PG Westosha Central | 2025 State #352 Nation WI . In his first full season of varsity basketball, Elijah helped lead Westosha Central to a conference title in what many thought might be a rebuilding year for Central. He made headlines with a 25 assist game against Kenosha Tremper, and was consistently turning heads with some flashy dimes. His vision is next level as he seems to spot an opening before anyone else in the gym, and he has the ability to fit the ball into tight windows in a variety of ways. He’s not just a passer though, as he led Westosha in scoring last season utilizing his deep range as a shooter, as well as a soft floater to score over size in the paint. Averaged team highs in points (14.2), assists (7.2), and steals (2.3) as a sophomore with two more years to get better in high school.
Mikey White
Mikey White
Kenosha Bradford has a promising freshman in Mikey White who already impressed in some summer league events. Don’t let his size fool you, Mikey can go out and produce against older and bigger competition. He has a lightning quick release on his shot with range well beyond the arc. He’s going to force guys to guard him 25 feet away from the rim where he’ll have the quickness to create, and if you sag off of him he’s going to let it fly from deep.
Liam made the jump to consistent varsity minutes last season, and this year could be the year he breaks out as a force at the high school level. At 6’8 he’s going to have a size advantage against most teams, and when you combine solid footwork with soft touch around the rim, he’s tough to stop when he catches on the block. He showed some flashes playing on a Wisconsin PGC team with two high major bigs, and he’ll look to translate that experience over to the high school season. As a sophomore Liam put up 7.3 points, 5. 7 rebounds, and 1.4 blocks per game before missing about a month with an injury towards the end of the season.
Israel will look to step up with a strong senior season at Kenosha ITA. He put in some strong performances in summer league a few months ago, and was a big time transition threat. At 6’3-6’4 he’s a fluid athlete who can handle it in the open floor, weaving through defenders to go coast-to-coast to the rim. Really crafty finisher inside who can hang in the air to finish in a variety of ways. Utilizes his long and athletic frame to make plays on the defensive end as well.
Andy Sauer
Andy Sauer
Andy had a strong sophomore season last year for a young Bradford team, and will come back looking to produce even more as a junior. He’s a versatile player with his 6’4 frame and fluid athleticism. Can excel as a slasher as he’s an athletic finisher, but can also step outside and knock down the three if you give him too much space. Was a 12.3 ppg scorer as a sophomore with a high of 24 points, and he’ll look to help Bradford improve upon their 3-22 record from last season.
