Expert Analysis

Hicks was probably one of my bigger surprises from The Expo that I want to keep tabs on for the year. I didn’t know what to expect coming in, and he kept making me look back over at his court. There was a calmness to how he played, but he wasn’t passive. Hicks pushed the pace, operated out of the high post, showed good footwork and found some creative finishes when the initial look wasn’t there as well. He also can hit mid range jumpers and hit the 3-ball and that versatility is something that can be used on varsity this year. I want to know what he looks like with a defined role. This is his debut into the rankings, but also could be a wake up call to the rest of the conference as a secret weapon.

Hicks was one of those prospects I didn’t know coming in, but it didn’t take long for him to get my attention. He competed hard, fit naturally into different lineups and never seemed sped up. He actually controlled and pushed the pace himself and hit some big mid-range shots and even pushed it out to the 3-pointer as well. His footwork around defenders was impressive but his confidence also stood out for me. He found ways to score, especially on creative and contested finishes. Hicks owned the high post and worked his way in, and also made a couple of plays defensively as well. He made a name for himself at the event and was a name I surely want to follow. He’s a name I think pops this year.
