2028 Rankings: From Deep

An injury has slowed a promising sophomore campaign, but one thing Collins proved is that he can shoot the rock. Very impressive performances at the McGuinness Classic highlighted signs of him turning the corner. Including earning all tournament honors after back to back hot shooting nights against Santa Fe and Choctaw. When he's in rhythm and with space, he often looks automatic as a catch and shoot threat. Has promise off the bounce, with the signs of being a physical and tough finisher as an upperclassman. Good athletic background, as his father played football at Oklahoma.     The sophomore is shooting over the magical 40% mark for the season. Has college ready range, which even was apparent last year during Caddo's run to the Class A semifinals. And has taken his game to another level this year for the Bruins. Along with shooting, he's a double double with good rebounding for a younger guard. And can hurt the defense in a variety of ways. Expect Willingham and Caddo back in the Class A State Tournament again this year. Which could be a showcase for Willingham to put a capper on an impressive sophomore campaign.     Mayo has proven to be a key part of a promising sophomore core for the Antlers. Spot up threat who can heat up in a hurry. Knows when to cut to the rim as well to make him a well rounded off the ball scoring threat. On the defensive end, he is starting to put his longer wingspan to more use, with a few multi block games during the backhalf of this season. Hitting shots from deep, cutting off the ball and being willing to compete on defense are great indicators of future success.     Excels as a movement shooter, with college ready range. Looks well drilled and trained when coming off screens and smoothly getting into deep triples. Shooting provides a core part of his DNA, while also working on the rest of guard abilities. Has good balance and touch on drives, scoring on runners and similar moves that allow him to get off his shots when attacking the teeth of his defense. Has some combo guard potential based on that and other skill development. But sharpshooting from three will likely always be his calling card. Which is a very good thing as colleges always wants shooters.     A two year starter for his eastern Oklahoma program, Bacon uses a quality three point jumper to set up the rest of his developing scoring game. Recently went for 24 points against Class A contenders Okay. After teams respect his three point shooting, he can then put it on the deck enough to get into mid-range. And occasionally all way to the rim. Has good height and rangy build for a youngster, which he has put to use for a few double doubles this year. Intriguing name as the combo of height, shooting and potentially still growing could separate his long term potential from other small town prospects.     A big body guard with serious range from beyond the arc. Looks at his best as a spot up threat, because when his feet are set he makes it look effortless. Generating good power from his legs to have almost NBA type range, but keeping a soft splash on his swishes. Can put it on a floor a bit too when looking for his shot. Interested to see how he develops because as he matures he should be a physical guard. Capable of making toughness plays around the rim on both ends of the court, which would compliment his shooting.
