IAABO Team Camp Forwards of Note

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Prep Hoops Missouri made a brief stop to Francis Howell North last week to check some of the action at the IAABO Team Camp. We watched a couple of games featuring Wentzville Liberty vs. Fort Zumwalt South and SLUH vs. Lafayette. Here is a look at some of the top forwards that we saw during our time at the IAABO Team Camp.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":2895058,"sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"media"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><a href="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2025/07/IMG_3841.jpeg"><img src="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2025/07/IMG_3841.jpeg?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-2895058" /></a></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2423602' first='Van' last='Kozlowski'] (Wentzville Liberty): A 6'6" 2026 post player who plays a physical game and who also has some good fundamentals in the paint. He had good seals for position and he could walk defenders up the lane who tried to front him. He has a nice touch around the basket and he can extend it out to jumpers from 12 to 15 feet.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>******</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":2895061,"sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"media"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><a href="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2025/07/IMG_3870.jpeg"><img src="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2025/07/IMG_3870.jpeg?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-2895061" /></a></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2404065' first='Ryan' last='Rolwing'] (Lafayette): A 6'5" 2027 forward who had an impressive game against SLUH in the game I watched him. He showcased a versatile post game with a nice jump hook over the left shoulder. They ran lob plays for him on the back side and he was also scoring on rim runs with his mobility. He was also catching it on the perimeter and driving it well.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>******</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":2895062,"sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"media"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><a href="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2025/07/IMG_3884.jpeg"><img src="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2025/07/IMG_3884.jpeg?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-2895062" /></a></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Zavion Caver-Hunt (SLUH): A 6'6" 2027 forward who was the most impressive rebounder I watching during the evening. He went after every rebound as if his name was written on the ball and it was his to have and nobody else. He used his strength and good athleticism to beat other players to the ball.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>******</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":2895066,"sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"media"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><a href="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2025/07/IMG_3860.jpeg"><img src="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2025/07/IMG_3860.jpeg?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-2895066" /></a></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Christian Kelly (Fort Zumwalt South): A 6'4" 2027 forward who has a big body and who plays with a lot of activity around the basket. He uses his body to carve out space inside for good post up opportunities. He is a very good offensive rebounder with a quick second jump. I was also impressed with how he got out of his area to rebound.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>******</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":2895067,"sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"media"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><a href="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2025/07/IMG_3843.jpeg"><img src="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2025/07/IMG_3843.jpeg?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-2895067" /></a></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Landen Johnson (Wentzville Liberty): A 6'3" 2026 small forward who really operates well out of the high post area. He's very aggressive on the attack as he can drive from the left or the right. He was also knocking down the jumper and hitting defenders with good shot fakes to set up his drive game. He also uses the backboard very effectively.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
