2023 6’6 Dickinson High School
Zyon is a monster in the paint who thrives at scoring through contact and tough defense. He is a dominant force with his back to he basket, and can destroy his matchup out of the high post as well. He can size up and bully his way through his defender to the rim. He is great on the glass and made smart outlet passes to jump start the break. His athleticism allows him to wreak havoc on both ends of the floor and take on anyone he wants to in the air. He is a solid rim protector but shares the front court with another strong post presence. Look for him to have a break out year next year when he gets a bit more space to work in the paint, but they have a real shot to make it far in the post season as well. Little is a special player with all the tools to become a high level defending wing/ forward at the next level. Dickinson beat West Brook High School and Pearland High School and is set to face Alvin Shadow Creek on March 1.

6’5 2023 Klein Forest High School
Chandler is a long and strong athlete that has a soft and fluid motion to his game. When you look at him you can tell he is a dual sport athlete for Klein Forest, he possesses great size and side to side agility that allows him to be a complete weapon on the floor. He has a great touch from beyond the arc and is even confident enough to set himself up for shots off the dribble. He is very reliable when acting as a spot up shooter and has the ability to punish the defense at all three levels if they are late at coming out to contest him. He is great at utilizing his shot fake and getting his defender on the back of his hip and flying by them toward the rim. Williams and Klein Forest lost to a very solid Cypress Falls team in the first round of the playoffs, however look for him to have a massive bounce back senior year next year!
Antonie Carter 2023 6’6 Langham Creek High School
Antonie is a sharp shooting wing who is great at dominating at all three levels on the floor. His ability to space the floor and knock down shots beyond the arc is a real weapon for him and his team. He is able to consistently shoot over the top of guards with his long arms and high release point on his jumper. He draws a tremendous amount of pressure when he has the ball and knows when to fire the right pass out to his shooters. He always seems to have his head up making the right play. Carter is a special player that everyone has to keep their eye on, especially as Langham Creek continues to roll through the playoffs.

2023 Strake Jesuit High School
Jace is a special combo guard who can fill it up from all three levels. I was blown away by his aggressiveness and willingness to take over the game and attack the basket. When his team began to go down early in the second quarter, he single-handidly put the team on his back and changed the momentum in the game by getting a few big time dunks, And-1s and hitting tough shots in the midrange. Posey is a prospect to keep your eye on, especially as he continues to develop and have break out games like this one! I would like to see him work on maintaining his aggressiveness for all 32 possible minutes. He has all the tools in the world to become a successful playmaker at the next level. Strake Jesuit High School lost to Clear Falls High School in the first round.
Joseph Tugler 2023 6’8 Cypress Falls High School
Joseph is an aware big who does not only have the ability to punish you with his back to the basket, but with his ability to pick apart the defenses with his passes. The ball never sticks to him, and he passes out of double teams with ease. He garners a lot of offensive attention with his size, especially against smaller teams. When facing a formidable big in

, he could not back him down as much as he would like, but got his scoring done in his ability to seal him off under the rim and running the floor. On defense, he is great at sliding over to protect the rim. His defenders are allowed to be more aggressive on the perimeter, knowing they are funneling their opponent into such a strong defender in the paint. Cypress Falls beat Klein Forest and College Park and is set to take on Westfield on Tuesday, March 1.
