This is what they would look like! Once again this is a ranking based on college potential not what their impact will necessarily be this year in high school. This is our Illinois Top 50 Prospects Regardless of Class!
Today we unveil prospects #46 – #50!
#46 Jalen Griffith Jalen Griffith 5'9" | PG Simeon | 2023 State IL (Simeon)
Last Year’s Rank: #41
Griffith has been a known name from his BallisLife videos since before he stepped foot at Simeon. He is the true leader of the Wolverines at the point. High IQ guard that has an advanced passing feel, pull up shooting game, and is excellent converting making acrobatic layups. His speed and pick/roll playmaking are dynamic!
#47 Matthew Moore Matthew Moore 6'7" | PF Hillcrest | 2023 State IL (Joliet West)
Last Year’s Rank: NR
UNC-Wilmington commit is a bouncy four man that was excellent for Chicago Lockdown on the Prep Hoops Circuit. The difference was his ability to finish with force on put backs, dives, and dump offs. He played with an edge on the defensive end swatting shots and rebounding. Has some face up shooting in the developmental upside of his game as well.
#48 Quentin Jones Quentin Jones 6'4" | SG Marian Catholic | 2023 State IL (Marian Catholic)
Last Year’s Rank: NR
Jones is a strong bodied wing that is headed to Cal Poly next season. Really liked the jump he made as a player this summer scoring from multiple levels at a high rate especially with his improved jump shot. Athletic and strong wing that can defend multiple positions as well.
#49 Will Gonzalez Will Gonzalez 6'5" | SF Curie | 2024 State IL (Riverside Brookfield)
Last Year’s Rank: NR
Long and lanky small forward that screams two way wing. He could develop into an elite wing defender with his physical tools, quickness, and lateral mobility. Offensively he is a big time wing passer that is a connector along with being able to find his teammates for dimes. Good ball handler that can create off the bounce for scores.
#50 Shaheed Solebo Shaheed Solebo 6'4" | SF Lane Tech | 2024 State IL (Lane Tech)
Last Year’s Rank: NR
Solebo is a lefty wing that has mid-majors intrigued with his ability to score with off the catch threes along with putting it on the deck. Tough kid that is a pure bucket getter who rebounds well for his position and should put Lane Tech on the map as a major threat this season!
