Johnson is a strong bodied two guard that can really score it. One of the more athletic wings in the sophomore class with his ability to beat defenders off the bounce, play in the open floor, along with stopping and popping for jumpers.
Brent Taylor Brent Taylor 6'3" | SG Lincoln Way East | 2025 State IL (Lincoln Way East)
Taylor emerged at the Prep Hoops Top 250 Camp in the fall and carried that into a strong junior campaign. Wiry wing that is a legit three level scorer. Has a feathery jumper that when he gets flowing is unguardable!

Walls is coming off a 3A state championship where he was a key force in their title run. Point guard that can run the show being strong with the ball and pushes with his athleticism getting to the rim. Improved shooter and all-around playmaker.

Lockett is among the top 20 2026 prospects in the state. He is oozing with upside. Plus shot maker from all over the floor with his fluid jumper. Can create off the dribble along with draining jumpers off the catch. Also impacts defensively.
Jayden Madden Jayden Madden 6'9" | C Romeoville | 2026 State IL (Romeoville)

Noah Emmanuel Noah Emmanuel 6'9" | C Whitney Young | 2027 IL (Whitney Young)
Emmanuel didn’t see much varsity tick, but caught our attention with his size, length, athleticism, and skill at Pangos camp in the fall. Fluid athlete that could be the next big time post for the Dolphins!
Kyle Cooper Kyle Cooper 6'0" | PG Waltonville | 2026 State IL (Waltonville)
