The top ten players in a recruiting class are usually the tone setters. The latest top ten for the class of 2024 in Louisiana have been some of the most highly recruited players in recent history. This being the final top ten list, we will review who the list comprises and what makes them the top players in the senior class.   1. [player_tooltip player_id='1480391' first='Allen' last='Graves'] (Ponchatoula) - The Gatorade Player of the Year won his second straight state championship this season. He is a player who can score at every level and rebound. Graves also got better each year. He was definitely an example of how hard work pays off.   2. [player_tooltip player_id='1105554' first='Kameron' last='Williams'] (Lafayette Christian) - The Tulane commit is the most skilled player in the top 10. He can lead an offense, rebound on both ends, and score on all levels. His versatility will be an asset to him on the next level.   3. [player_tooltip player_id='1105536' first='Jeremiah' last='Evans'] (Southwood) - Evans, the two time 1-5A MVP, is a walking double double. His ability to defend the paint sets him apart. On the offensive end, his ability to handle at 6'9"/6'10" along with his shooting capability makes him the perfect stretch 4. UL-Lafayette will definitely profit from his skill set.   4. [player_tooltip player_id='1159181' first='Trey'Dez' last='Green'] (Zachary) - While Green did not get to play this season due to eligibility reasons, he is a highly skilled big. Trey'Dez is going to LSU to play football but do not be surprised if he dons a basketball uniform in the winter. The Zachary lefty is truly an asset when he is on the hardwood.   5. [player_tooltip player_id='1105540' first='Todd' last='Jones'] (Newman) - Jones, who is a multiple time state champion, is a great paint defender and defends on the perimeter as well. His ability to fill the wing running the floor sets him apart. Jones offensive rebounding is another trait that makes him a top player.   6. [player_tooltip player_id='1145438' first='Kohen' last='Rowbatham'] (St. Thomas Aquinas) - Rowbatham plays the point guard better than anyone in the state. His ability to play both guard positions also helps him attack defenses at a high level. While he may play football on the next level, he would be a great point guard also.   7. [player_tooltip player_id='1218216' first='Jayce' last='Depron'] (Madison Prep) - Jayce is the prototype two way, two guard. His size, length, and shooting ability give him an advantage over other two guards on a nightly basis. Depron is a disruptive defender as well. His ability to cause turnovers and get into the open floor is game-changing.   8. [player_tooltip player_id='1386539' first='Turner' last='Duncan'] (St. Augustine) - Turner is a point guard with a shooter's touch. Duncan can score at all three levels and is very good at finding teammates in transition as well as the half court. His ability to drive the ship has prepared him to play on the next level.   9. [player_tooltip player_id='1105547' first='Jordan' last='Moore'] (Hahnville) - Moore may be the most exciting player on this list. He is a highlight reel waiting to happen on the open floor. Moore also improved his perimeter shooting yearly and is deadly from behind the arc. His ability to attack the rim and shoot makes him hard to guard.   10. [player_tooltip player_id='1218192' first='Wayne' last='Randall-Bashay'] (New Iberia) - Wayne took his team to Marsh Madness with the versatility of his game. He can facilitate, handle, and rebound at a high level. This year Randall-Bashay improved his scoring from all levels. The improvement of his play should make him very attractive on the next level.   While the top four players on this list are signed and/or committed, the rest are still waiting to put their names on the dotted line. Their ability alone makes them attractive. With senior signing days coming, we will see where the rest of the top ten land. They will definitely be assets to schools on the next level.
