I wanted to give a mention to those that are quality prospects that may have not been on the site enough. Impactful and intriguing prospects. Also, we’ll update on some higher-end prospects as well.
Owen comes off the bench, where he provides size, length, and rebounding. A good athlete that moves and runs well rim to rim. Attacks the offensive glass, looking to get put-backs at the hoop. A versatile prospect that can play away from the hoop and is a solid and careful passer, trying to value the ball and the possession. Would be a starter on a lot of teams.

Sayler had a really nice and highly-active game versus Viborg-Hurley. He was all over the court making positive plays for his team. He can hit a three and also has a solid mid-range extended jumper. He had a big first half in the Viborg-Hurley game, finishing with 15 points and 7 rebounds total.
Fairbanks brought a ton of energy and playmaking versus Viborg-Hurley. He was up and down the court quickly and on a mission. Plays fast and is constantly on the move. He’s a slasher offensively, routinely gaining momentum going at the hoop. No wasted movement when he is attacking the hoop. 8 points vs. Viborg-Hurley.
Nolan is a long guard/wing for Viborg-Hurley. He’s a starter as a Sophomore, so he’s definitely someone to watch the next few years. Not a ton to speak on at this moment, but I think he takes a leap after this year with more experience and more physical development.
Fornia is a big and physical presence at 6’7. Works for a lot of his production in the interior. Produced a double-double with 15 points and 10 rebounds vs. Viborg-Hurley.
Weber is playing as a wing for Bridgewater-Emery. He’s putting the ball on the floor, trying to quickly develop that part of his game. I have only seen him once this season, but it seems like he’s getting more comfortable as an offensive playmaker. Already a developed defensive presence with his length and verticality.
Hanson is being the impactful player that he’s always been, but he’s especially becoming a consistent threat shooting the ball in the mid-range area and beyond. Has a high release that is nearly impossible to block. Hitting some off-balance shots as well. He’s improving his stock some.
