Spring Forwards on the Rise

Check out some forwards from across the state who have been on their game this spring. These sophomores and juniors all have what it takes to play at the next level and can fill necessary roles for whatever team they play with.    Singleton is a super springy forward who plays much bigger than his 6-foot-4 frame suggests. He's an excellent rebounder, using positioning and anticipation to outwork other players. He can time shots well both in the half-court and in transition to defend the rim, and he's a relentless finisher in by the hoop. He's a big-time athlete with a good motor who knows his strengths and plays to them without fail.     Walker should be a big riser from this spring who has shown a pretty diverse skill set and demonstrated he can affect the game across multiple fronts. He's got a unique style of attack with some creative footwork in the paint, and he can step outside to knock down the 3. Walker has shown a lot of growth this spring and is an up-and-coming wing prospect out of Moses Lake.     Avary is an interesting wing prospect who looks even stronger and more athletic this spring. He thrives as a defender and athletic finisher/rebounder, but he can still pop out and hit the occasional 3-pointer as well. It's really the physicality he plays with that has been most promising that allows him to guard all over the court.     Breedlove has a lot of talent and continues to take steps forward toward putting it all together. He can shoot the 3 well, battles inside for offensive boards, and has some creativity from the blocks and intermediate areas. When he is playing consistently and locked in, he can be a true game-changer with the fight and intensity he brings.     Schow has long been a kid who can put up points efficiently and rack up the double-doubles. This spring he's been showing that next level of evolution in his game, particularly by expanding his range and becoming a more lethal threat from 3-point. He's a strong kid who can do a little bit of everything out there, so the improvements from long-range can really open up space for the other aspects of his game to thrive even more.
