<p>What prospects in the Class of 2028 put their name on the map emerging at the Riverside Brookfield Live Event? Here are a few that caught our attention!</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='3669944' first='Judah' last='Maxwell'] (Niles North)</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Maxwell is a power forward that has nice size already at 6'7”. Solid rebounder with good length and moves his feet on the defensive end. Flashes some skill potential.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='3669882' first='Jordan' last='Joiner'] (Homewood Flossmoor)</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Joiner is a 6'0” scoring point guard that could emerge as a nice running mate for Hawkins. Quality shooter that mixed them in from both two and three.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2422332' first='Isaac' last='Echols'] (Waubonsie Valley)</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Echols is a 6'0” shooting guard with a rangy frame. Solid defender that shot it very well from both mid-range and spotting up from three.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>Matt Cowen (Plainfield East)</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>The lefty 6'3” shooting guard is a southpaw that can really knock down shots at a high level. Was one of the breakout shot makers at the event as the southpaw poured them in one after another.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>Bolu Larewaju (Leo)</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>You can't teach size, strength, and frame. At 6'9” this big man totally looks the part with a broad shouldered frame and plus athleticism. He flashed as a rebounder and really shined running the floor with his fluidness. There is work to be done, but I'm buying stock now!</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='3655584' first='Brendin' last='Thomas'] (Shepard)</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>The 6'3” shooting guard from Shepard gave their big man some help on the perimeter. Strong and athletic frame with quality size. Big time transition player with his burst and relentlessness attacking downhill.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2531987' first='Deon' last='Grant'] (Romeoville)</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Grant played well off Fears as the 5'10” point guard was effective as a spot up shooter along with pulling up from super deep. Quick twitched guard with the ball that's strength is his range as a shooter.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>Danny Lange (Fenwick)</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>The Friars 6'6” power forward is a lefty with length that ran the floor well, can put it on the floor a little, and has a nice looking hook shot.</p>
