<p>The 2029 class might have only played one varsity season, but that hasn't stopped them from making an impact. The front court group is full of talent and is looking to put their games on display during the Spring Live Period. Here are the 2029 forward prospects to track this May.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2879104' first='Flory' last='Kuminga'], 6'7 PF Patrick School</strong></h2>
<!-- /wp:heading -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Kuminga is the top rated forward prospect in the rankings and should have a big May for the NY Rens. The 6'7 forward explodes off the floor for dunks and is able to make shots through contact. Kuminga can also put the ball on the floor and can knock down open jumpers from behind the arc. He skies for rebounds on both ends of the floor and influences shots around the rim. Kuminga is a talented forward prospect who should put his game on full display over the next couple of weeks.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2899993' first='Javion' last='Chappell'], 6'6 SF Roselle Catholic</strong></h2>
<!-- /wp:heading -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Chappell is an intriguing forward prospect as he can play both forward spots. The 6'6 wing has a good first step, which he uses to beat his defender off the bounce and can finish strong above the rim. Chappell uses his size to see over his defender and rises up nicely on his jumper. He has the length to defend multiple positions on the floor and is an underrated rebounder. Chappell will have the ball in his hands more this spring, which will help his stock in a big way over the next couple of weeks.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2633990' first='Clint' last='Martin'], 6'2 SF Rumson Fair-Haven</strong></h2>
<!-- /wp:heading -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Martin can also play in the back court, making him a prospect to track this spring. The 6'2 wing uses his handle to get to his spot on the floor and can finish in a number of ways around the rim. Martin can also score in the mid-range and sets his feet before he shoots. He is an underrated passer and slides his feet on the defensive end. Martin's ability to play on and off the ball is something that will help his game throughout the course of the spring.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='3523196' first='Darren' last='Riddick'], 6'5 SF Clearview</strong></h2>
<!-- /wp:heading -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Riddick flashed at times this season for Clearview and should carry that momentum into the spring. The 6'5 wing uses his strong frame to get position down low and has a nice touch around the basket. Riddick can also put the ball on the floor and his range extends out to the three-point line. He slides his feet on the defensive end and is an underrated rebounder. Riddick has the ability to breakout this spring with his ability to score inside and out.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2884536' first='Evan' last='Wells'], 6'5 PF Middletown South</strong></h2>
<!-- /wp:heading -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Wells had a big debut season for the Eagles as he helped them reach the sectional final. The 6'5 forward has a good face-up game as he can get to the rim from the perimeter and can knock down open jumpers on the perimeter. Wells knows how to get position in the paint and has a soft touch around the rim. He is a strong rebounder and holds his ground on the defensive end. Wells is a skilled forward prospect who should put his full game on display over the next couple of weeks.</p>
