Expert Analysis
Scott Burgess | Prep Hoops Scout
The UW-Milwaukee commit was a little tentative as a scorer, but he impacted in more ways than just that. He rebounded at a high level recording double digit boards being active on both ends of the floor. Also on the defensive end he was a force as a rim protector blocking shots. Offensively he was most effective as a passer and getting in the mid-range. Went for 11 points.

took control of the fourth quarter after a seven-point deficit to the Collinsville Kahoks on Friday night. He showcased his shooting with a smooth jumper from the top of the key, followed by a step-back three-pointer. Akoro would also draw a foul and grab two rebounds.

(#3) makes the All-Star list as the power forward. Ben has a big frame and is listed at 6’7”. Akoro also led the team in points and rebounds in nearly every game during the tournament. The NCAA Division I recruit should work well with Clemmons, Carson, and Maurer. Like Carson and Maurer, he sees the court exceptionally well and can step outside to take a long-range shot.

Akoro used his size and strength to control both the offensive and defensive zones. He drove to the rim, drawing defenders toward him, and created open opportunities for teammates on the wing or in the key. While he’s not afraid to take a three-point shot,

certainly showcased his versatile skillset last week against the Lancers, leading the team to an OT win after scoring 25 points. Akoro averages nearly 16 points, 10 rebounds, and 4 blocks per game. I look forward to seeing how Akoro (#3) adapts to Flyers basketball.
Standing at 6’8”, Akoro appears comfortable playing down low, bringing the ball up the court, and taking long-range shots.
