Dontrez Williams (Sikeston, No. 28 to No. 5): The athletic 6’4″ guard is one of the top two-way performers in the state. He is capable of dominating games at both ends of the court, which he did quite often last season in leading the Bulldogs to a Class 5, district championship. He is a potent scorer and playmaker who also blocks shots and creates disruption on the perimeter with his length. He averaged 20 points, eight rebounds and nearly three steals and nearly three blocks a game.
B.J. Williamson B.J. Williamson 6'0" | PG New Madrid Central | 2024 State MO (New Madrid Central, No. 23 to No. 11): The 6’0″ combo guard returned to action as a junior and didn’t miss a beat as he helped lead the Eagles to the Class 3 state championship. He is an energetic guard who attacks the basket relentlessly, but he also compliments his drive game with a 3-point shot that extends well beyond the line. He averaged 19.9 points, 3.4 rebounds and 2.6 steals a game while making 49 3-pointers.
Bryce Spiller Bryce Spiller 6'4" | SG Lutheran North | 2024 State MO (Lutheran North, No. 36 to No. 16): A 6’4″ shooting guard who transferred from Edwardsville (IL) and transformed a team with a losing record to a team that won 20 games and played for the Class 3 state championship. He’s a potent offensive player with a nice 3-point stroke and the physical strength to attack off the dribble. He averaged 18.6 points and five rebounds while shooting 39 percent from 3-point range with 57 triples made.
Nashawn Davis Nashawn Davis 6'5" | SF Cardinal Ritter | 2024 State MO (Cardinal Ritter, No. 45 to No. 22): A 6’5″ combo forward who made a hefty jump after helping the Lions to the Class 5 state championship. He can score inside very effectively while also being able to handle the ball and be a playmaker when he has to. He averaged 11 points and six rebounds a game while shooting 53 percent from the field.
Logan Bishop Logan Bishop 6'2" | SG Lee's Summit West | 2024 State MO (Lee’s Summit West, No. 50 to No. 25): The 6’2″ shooting guard was the leading scorer for the Titans, who were one of the top teams in the Kansas City area. He is an excellent 3-point shooter who plays with a motor that never stops running. He made an impressive number of 77 3-pointers in addition to his 15.9 points a game, which helped lead West to a berth in the Class 6 state quarterfinals.
Cooper Francis Cooper Francis 6'4" | SG Salisbury | 2024 State MO (Salisbury, No. 41 to No. 27): The 6’4″ guard was a complete all-around standout in leading the Panthers to the Class 2 state championship. He averaged 20 points a game during the season, but he was also an excellent rebounder, defender and playmaker who made his teammates better. The lefty is an explosive athlete who can get a bucket from all three levels.
Josiah Franklin (Grandview, No. 49 to No. 32): A 5’10” point guard who has been a fixture in Grandview’s starting lineup since he entered school as a freshman. He has tremendous speed and quickness and he has a high basketball IQ to go along with it. He can create a bucket with his dribble penetration or drop off a nice dime with his court vision. He can also knock down the 3-point shot to keep defenders honest.
Quenton Parker Quenton Parker 6'5" | SG STEAM Academy | 2024 State MO (Cardinal Ritter, No. 86 to 37): A 6’5″ wing player who played a key role off the bench in the Lions’ run to the Class 5 state championship. He is an explosive athlete who is an ideal “3 and D” player with his ability to knock down perimeter shots and be disruptive on the defensive end. He averaged seven points and four rebounds a game while shooting 39 percent from 3-point range.
