One of the fastest risers early this high school basketball season, Ratliff had some monster offensive performances for Archbishop Stepinac in Border League action. Able to catch fire from long distance, Ratliff is 7 feet tall but can confidently play on the perimeter with impressive shooting and ball handling ability for a prospect of his size. Committed to USC with his twin brother, I think Adonis has NBA potential if things continue to click for him.

Perry is an athletic forward with a natural ability to get downhill, using his speed and strength to attack the rim. His finishing around the basket is impressive, able to finish through contact and with authority. As a wing, he can stretch the floor, but his strength and agility make him a constant mismatch when driving to the hoop. With his versatility and explosive athleticism, Perry is a tough player to stop once he gains momentum.

Adonis is a big time rim protector. Posseses a real nice game on both ends. But defensively with his length he is a block swatter at the rim. Really good at off the backside blocks but also defends well on the drive, which makes it possible for him to guard smaller players. Showed the ability to guard pick and rolls with his length.

Ratliff is a mobile and skilled big who brings versatility to the floor. His footwork and touch around the basket make him a consistent scoring threat. He continues to show steady improvement in his game, adding new layers each time out. With his size and evolving skill set, Ratliff’s growth trajectory is definitely one to watch.

Ratliff was a presence who made his impact felt on both ends of the floor. He disrupted shots defensively, altered drives, and controlled the glass with his length and timing. Offensively, he stayed active around the rim, finishing plays and providing second-chance opportunities. His winning putback in the final moments sealed the game and capped off a gritty two-way performance.

Adonis’s stat line for this game was very impressive. So again expect to see Stepinac quite possibly in this report next season as well. With the young talent they have. The junior big man had 8 points inside and out, 11 rebounds and 14 blocks. So he was a big part of making it difficult for Jefferson to feel comfortable at the rim.

Ratliff is an impressive 7-foot player with a versatile skill set that makes him a matchup nightmare. He has a smooth shooting stroke, capable of stretching the defense with his range beyond the arc. In addition to his perimeter shooting, Ratliff can finish effectively inside, using his size and strength to dominate the paint. His ability to do it all makes him a unique threat on both ends of the floor.
