<p>There was a lot of tremendous basketball on display at the Prep Hoops Michigan Top 250! There were a lot of players that showed that they're rising stars. This is a fairly broad term that could mean things like I think we'll hear their name more in the near future or that their on the brink of something special. Here's our look at some “rising stars” from the Top 250.</p>

He flaunted a nice jumper that he can get off and hit even in traffic or a hand up in front of him. I really liked Willis' play in the open floor. He filled wings nicely and spread the floor.
