Previous Ranking: NR
Current Ranking: #11
We have been able to check out Schilb several times during the first half of the season and have liked what we have seen. Good length, athleticism, and size for position. Smooth two guard that when he has his jumper flowing is almost unguardable. Shoots it with good form. Slick ball handler that has shown a knack for scoring on tough takes through contact or on euro steps.

Mercer is the son of former NBA player Ron Mercer. He is starting to come into his own as he was solid at Pangos Camp in the fall and took it to new heights in the first half of the season for RB. Excellent three level scorer that can pull up over defenders for feathery jumpers while also putting it on the deck for scores at the cup. Moves well without the ball.

Current Ranking: #23
We have really liked what we have seen out of this LWE sophomore. Great frame with plus athleticism and knows how to use it. Crisp mid-range shooter that can also score with pop playing above the rim. Potential to be a two way threat down the line as well.

Shooters with size are always of value and that is what Houlihan brings to the table. The lefty has plus positional size and can really shoot it from beyond the arc off the catch. Flashed some versatility to his game, but his strength is definitely the long ball.

Nelson jumped off the floor to us in our first look at Simeon early in the season. He has a great frame and strength along with plus athleticism. Good activity level. Rebounds, defends, and showed he could score in transition along with on the offensive glass.

Current Ranking: #41
Absolutely loved what we saw from Johnson at the Collinsville Holiday Classic where he dropped 19 points making it look absolutely effortless. Long and lanky 6’2” shooting guard that has a silky smooth jumper from both inside and behind the arc. Also gets to the rim consistently off the bounce. Rangy defender with upside on that end.

Shannon was another player that made a major impression at the Chicago Elite Classic early in the season. The 6’3” athletic two guard has pop throwing down dunks, getting on the glass, and playing excellent defense. A lot more in there as well!
