New Names of Underclassmen Forwards

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Prep Hoops Missouri takes a look at some new names of young forwards who we have watched during the month of May. You'll be hearing a lot more from these talented young frontcourt players throughout the rest of the summer and into the high school season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2534725' first='Jack' last='Barnett'] ([program_tooltip program_id='2119127' first='Missouri' last='Hawks'] 15U): A 6'4" 2027 forward from Lee's Summit West who is a big, strong post player who knows how to operate around the basket. He uses his physical strength and footwork to establish his position and maneuver inside for buckets. He catches the ball well and he can finish. He will also muscle his way inside for offensive rebounds and putbacks. He is a solid defender in the low post with his strength and positioning.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2369564' first='Charlie' last='Ries'] (Mavericks G-Elite 17U): A 6'5" 2026 forward from Duchesne who has been playing up at the 17U level and doing a solid job. He has good length and mobility and he's capable of scoring in the post. He is still in the developmental stages of his game, but he has a pretty nice upside with potential growth in his physical stature as well as his overall skill set.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Bennett Wilde (Mid Mo Phenom 16U): A 6'6' 2026 forward from Blair Oaks who has some impressive athleticism and he is not shy about showing it. When he attacks the basket, he is going strong and looking to throw down a slam dunk. He is a mobile young big who runs the court well. He helped the Falcons win a Class 4 district championship during the high school season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2528016' first='Tyler' last='Stockard'] (SW IL Jets 15U): A 6'5" 2027 forward from Vashon who I actually got an initial look at the Ramey Fall League in September. He's a physical player who play with a lot of energy at both ends of the court. He can catch it and score on a tough drive from the high post and he can score in transition on a rim-run. His motor is very impressive.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Ian Larison (Mid Mo Phenom 16U): A 6'7" 2026 forward from Russellville who is a mobile young big who plays with an impressive motor. He's has a solid build who will set a good screen and put a body on somebody to box out for rebounding position. He is also a capable shot blocker.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
