University of Incarnate Word commit, Josh Akpovwa Josh Akpovwa 6'7" | C Seven Lakes | 2023 State TX was an absolute force of nature underneath the basket, he had stints where he couldn’t be kept off the offensive glass or from scoring in the down low. Active rebounder on both sides of the ball who controlled the boards with force and intensity while clogging the paint with his massive size. Akpovwa did such a fantastic job using his backside and length to seal off his defender on the pick and roll, Josh found himself wide open where he could easily receive the ball. The 6-foot-8-inch postman also displayed a solid handle of the rock, showing the ability to put it on the deck and get to the basket from outside. In the second quarter, Josh Akpovwa Josh Akpovwa 6'7" | C Seven Lakes | 2023 State TX began to put his athleticism on full display when he shot the gap at half court stealing the ball and taking down the floor for a two-handed slam dunk off of two feet. As a defender, he impacted the game heavily by blocking shots with terrific timing, picking up 2 blocks in the second quarter after pinning a layup off the backboard and another he swatted out of the sky in transition. Later on in the third quarter, Josh produced 2 more blocks in the span of a minute before finishing the game with a total of 5 blocks.
