Brandon Lieb Brandon Lieb 6'10" | C Deerfield | 2020 State IL (Deerfield)
Lieb is the tallest prospect in the senior class at 6’11”. He uses a variety of moves down low to score. Left handed hook shot, spin move, short jumper, drop step and dunk, and gets on the offensive glass. The Deerfield five man has become quicker with his moves and more fluid with his footwork. Needs to continue to add strength to finish through more physical defenders at the next level. Hits the glass at a nice clip and continues to show timing as a shot blocker.
Armond Williams Armond Williams 6'5" | SF Curie | 2020 State IL (East St. Louis)
Williams stands at 6’8” with a long and lanky frame to go with plus athleticism. He gets on the offensive glass, scores on dump offs, and can split a double for a bucket. Looked more fluid and comfortable on the offensive end as a senior. Defensively is really where he tends to shine as a back of the line rim protector that can swat shots.
Devon House Devon House 6'8" | C Sterling Newman | 2020 State IL (Sterling Newman)
House is a wide bodied center that is your classic back to the basket five. One of the top small school players in the state this year. Not the best athlete, but he makes up for it with his scoring touch around the hoop. Below the rim athlete that flashes as a shooter every now and then. Area rebounder with a high skill level.
Niles Arrington Niles Arrington 6'7" | C Home School | 2020 State IL (Home School)
Home schooled post that has such a physically imposing body. He is a big time rebounder that snatches them out of the air with his strong hands and clears it going the other way.
Keydrian Jones Keydrian Jones 6'5" | C Collinsville | 2020 State IL (Collinsville)
Wide bodied 6’6” center that anchors on the block. Space eater inside that has a soft touch in the lane. Quality area rebounder that clogs up the paint on the defensive end. Small school or JUCO prospect.
Christopher Smith Christopher Smith 6'8" | C Rich East | 2020 State IL (Rich East)
Smith emerged with his play in December defensively as a shot blocker and rebounder. Good size and length. Projectable big man that has upside.
Ideary Mooney Ideary Mooney 6'7" | C Bogan | 2020 State IL (Bogan)
Mooney is a big bodied post prospect that uses his girth against weaker opponents. The senior rebounds on the offensive end for put backs and converts through contact in the paint.
Patrick Readye Patrick Readye 6'7" | C East St. Louis | 2020 State IL (East St. Louis)
Readye is a big bodied five man that has slimmed down some since the summer. He showcased some mobility around the hoop this season and hit a three on occasion although it often had side spin. Has always had upside, but never put it all together in high school. Developmental upside in college!
