Bumila was the most dominant player in the MIAA this season, and it wasn’t close. The 6-foot-9 forward averaged over 35 points and 20 rebounds during Bishop-Feehan’s state title run, and he cemented himself as the best player in the state as a result. All tournament (and all season), the senior center was an offensive rebounding and paint scoring machine, often showcasing overwhelming strength and toughness near the rim that no other big in the MIAA could handle. Teammates would often just throw 50/50 balls in the air near the rim, and Bumila would go up and effortlessly catch them for dunks and layups. He might be the most dominant MIAA player I’ve seen throughout my playing, coaching, and scouting days, and he’s better at baseball. Wow.

Bumila, a forward out of Bishop Feehan High School in Massachusetts, makes his first appearance in the rankings at #65. The 6’9″ big man was absolutely phenomenal during the second half of the season and throughout Bishop Feehan’s run to the state title. A physically imposing lefty, he controlled the glass on both ends of the floor, finished with authority around the rim, and forced opponents to think twice on shots close to the rim. A major competitor, he does a terrific job of rim running in transition, showed touch as a shooter out to the three point line, and played with an unmatched motor. He will head to the University of Texas in the fall to continue his baseball career.
