Dink Pate | 2024
A top 30 performer with several division 1 offers before his first varsity game. Pate is an athletic 6-6 wing with a smooth handle. A consistent dribble, pass, shoot threat with a high upside.
Malachi Evans | 2023
Evans is my all upside pick from the big men in attendance. A sturdy 6-9 that sets a strong pick and rebounds. The saying big men develop late may run true for Evans who didn’t produce much in the scoring column, but as a 6-9 post with wide shoulders, he made it harder on the 2024s and 2023s that shared the paint with him. His physical tools are all there its up to Evans and time to see what he’ll be, but he’s worth a flier in his recruiting cycle.
Jamari Thigpen | 2024
A promising 2024 prospect with 6-4 size. He’s a plus athlete, giving Thigpen one of the best combinations of physical tools of Louisiana’s talent-laden class.
Jacolb Cole Jacolb Cole 6'8" | SF Link Academy | 2023 #148 Nation MO | 2023
A physical 6-7 wing with the frame to play the four. Cole gives you a versatile inside-outside attack that allows him to take advantage of his size. Has the ability to hit the over the head pass hinting at improving court vision.
Tre’Lin Green | 2023
5-7 Green really turns the jets on in the open court. Despite being sub six foot ritually finished around length.
Liam McNeeley | 2024
6-6 Liam McKneely is an offensive threat. He can initiate an offense, excels as a wing, and live ball passer. He’s a slasher that gets to the free throw line and will only get better as he gets stronger. Rebounds well for the position and starts the break as a threat to find offense in transition.
K.J. Lewis K.J. Lewis 6'4" | SG Duncanville | 2023 State #30 Nation TX | 2023
Athletic combo guard that could double as your school’s middle linebacker. He plays hard both ways, creating plays with the effort and the strength to cover multiple positions. Offensively he’s a solid ball handler with improving shooting from distance. His size and strength make him a great option for the wing. A cutter with great instincts, Lewis makes a good backdoor finisher.
Jayden Forrest | 2023
Forrest has a knack for getting the second chance ball. In the top 60 game, those 50/50 balls resulted in putback rebounds against posts as tall as 6-7 and 6-9. When not fighting for second chance opportunities he serves as a quick lead guard that can initiate an offense and get paint touches. Selfless with the ball passes to make plays.
