At 6’7″ KJ is unlike any other player in his class. KJ is by far the most athletic and versatile forward/big that I have seen in the class of 2024. His ability to run the floor leads to a bunch of easy baskets in transition. On offense you can put KJ in the post or on the perimeter and he will constantly break defenses down. KJ has great range for a 6’7″ basketball player. His ability to post people up is best offensive skill. On Defense it is nearly impossible to score over KJ. The same goes for his frame, his ability to box people out and rebound is probably his second best skill.

It doesn’t matter what Javelle is going to give it his all. At 6’4″ and with lots of length Javelle has a lot of potential on both ends of the floor. On defense he can guard positions 1-4 on the floor. With his length he has the potential to be a lock down defender and create turnovers. On offense Javelle has a great 3 point shot. Especially from the wing and corner Javelle does not miss. Because of how good of a shooter he is defenders have to respect his pump fake allowing him to go right by defenders and attack the rim.
Braylan has done a great job of improving his shooting from 3. That speaks to his work ethic and how much work he puts in. Braylan is also an outstanding rebounder. Given his height at 6’7″ and his ability to handle the ball, it allows him break defenses down once he gets in the paint. Given how much work Braylan puts in it will be exciting to see what he can do his senior year.
It doesn’t matte if it is a championship game, training session, or pickup at the park Shane is going to go 110% every single time he plays. Shane might be the most versatile player in his class. At 6’4″ his ability to handle the ball, and shoot makes him a great perimeter player. However, Shane can also play with his back to the basket in the paint and still dominate. Shane is a monster on the boards, and can guard anyone on the court. He is an extremely versatile player that will carry his team his senior year.

Highlights
At 6’9″ anytime Brendan is on the floor there is a chance he is going to put someone on a highlight reel. He is great at running the floor and it is nearly impossible to stop an explosive 6’9″ player who can throw it down with ease. Brendan also has the ability to knockdown fadeaway’s in the low post. On defense Brendan is one of the best shot blockers in the class of 2024. Same with rebounding in large part due to his height and frame.
