<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The Prep Hoops Illinois Top 250 Camp is a wrap!&nbsp; We are breaking it down from all angles!&nbsp; Today checkout <strong>PHI Top 250: Top 2023 Performers</strong>!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1295647' first='Malachi' last='Brown'] (Chicago Agricultural)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Brown is a 6'6” power forward that presents good size and length.&nbsp; Snatched rebounds in traffic and flashed some skill throughout the day.&nbsp; That even included a top of the key three ball.&nbsp; Small colleges and JUCO's should take a look at this under the radar big man.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1048314' first='Jordan' last='Brown'] (Bloom)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>This was the best we have seen Brown during his career.&nbsp; The angular guard from the south suburbs has added some strength and that helped him getting on the offensive glass.&nbsp; Monster defender and was a solid passer.&nbsp; Best slashing and finishing through contact.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1537989' first='Jalen' last='Calloway'] (Lincoln Park)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Calloway put his name on our radar over the summer playing on the Prep Hoops Circuit.&nbsp; Long and thin two guard with a rangy frame.&nbsp; Sound looking three point shooter that also is slippery with the ball when given space.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='989266' first='Brayden' last='Long'] (Yorkville Christian)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Long has been hurt for the majority of the last two seasons.&nbsp; It was great to see him back out on the floor where he showed off what he is best at.&nbsp; Thick bodied small forward that can hit open shots and posts up smaller defenders.&nbsp; Good rebounding wing.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1598697' first='Edvin' last='Bosnjak'] (Schaumburg)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>One of my colleagues and I were talking about how this prospect came out of nowhere.&nbsp; Hard to imagine a way this 6'7” four man would fall so far under the radar.&nbsp; Great length and athletic pop putting it on the deck.&nbsp; Threw down some nasty one handed dunks.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1537988' first='Will' last='O'Shields'] (DePaul Prep)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>O'Shields caught our attention over the summer and that continued with a nice outing at the Top 250 Camp.&nbsp; DePaul Prep wing is a strong and athletic wing that can get after it defensively and shot it well in the games we saw.&nbsp; Three and D wing should be a nice contributor for DePaul Prep this season and earn himself quite a few small college looks.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1113520' first='Kevin' last='Anthony'] (Von Steuben)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Anthony is a big man that I am a huge fan of.&nbsp; The 6'9” five man has an excellent frame and super long arms.&nbsp; He is at his best rim running in the open floor and getting on the offensive glass for put backs.&nbsp; With the lack of size out there D2s would be wise to take a look here as an upside prospect!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1113517' first='Maurice' last='Thomas'] (DePaul Prep)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Thomas is primed for a senior season to reestablish his name.&nbsp; Early in his career he showed well and then has been off the radar for a while.&nbsp; Was outstanding on Saturday knocking in an array of threes spotting up along with pulling up.&nbsp; He also has a sweet runner game and was active on defense.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1598672' first='Christian' last='Frantzen'] (Aurora Central Catholic)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The 5'10” point guard made an impression with his ability to knock down shots from the perimeter.&nbsp; Drained shots from distance with consistency off the catch and pulling up.&nbsp; Small college sleeper!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1048386' first='Jaloni' last='Johnson'] (Proviso East)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Want a bucket getter?&nbsp; That is exactly what this Proviso East standout does.&nbsp; One of the top scorers available still in the 2023 class.&nbsp; Silky smooth offensive repertoire with an effortless three point shot, smooth handles, and the ability to finish at a high level in transition.&nbsp; Best play of the day was when he swatted a shot defensively then finished on the other end from his two guard spot.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1598781' first='Tyrone' last='Price'] (Gary Comer College Prep)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Price is a new name that emerged with his long and lanky frame as a small forward that could handle it in the open floor covering a lot of ground with his long strides.&nbsp; Got to the rim with regularity and even hit a three.&nbsp; Sleeper to track!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1295621' first='Ephraim' last='Chase'] (Evanston)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Liked what we saw out of this 6'3” power wing that played bully ball attacking downhill.&nbsp; Also shot it pretty well from the perimeter hitting an array of threes.&nbsp; High-motor wing is going to be a perfect glue guy for a talented Evanston squad this year!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
