Expert Analysis
Brandon Ramsey | Prep Hoops Scout
When it comes to ball skill at the forward position there are few that have what Slagley has. He is a bit positionally undersized at 6’3″-6’4″ but makes up for it in physicality and mobility. Slagley finished with 10 points, 9 rebounds, and 5 assists in the big win over Lawrence North. His ability to rebound and go coast-to-coast as an open floor playmaker is impressive.

- Very solid big man piece paired with Gizzi.
- Slagely is a little bit of a do-it-all type of big. High motor player that is a willing rebounder and makes tough baskets around the rim. Was impressed with his ball handles as a big man.

is certainly one of them. Through two games this season, Slagely has put 12.0 points, 8.5 rebounds, and 4.5 assists in those game. He is one of the better “do-it-all” type of players we have in the in-state 2025 class. An extremely versatile player, you can almost play him at any spot on the floor and he will produce with his passing ability, strength, handles and more.

- Offers: None listed
- Player Traits: great passer, point-forward, strong, versatile, offensive guard mentality, very good ball handles, tough in fast break
- My Quick Thoughts: Slagely’s recruitment is a little head scratching as it is a little surprising that more small schools have not offered him yet. An extremely versatile player, you can almost play him at any spot on the floor and he will produce.

You simply cannot teach the level of vision and feel that this 6’4″ forward from New Palestine High School possesses. Slagley is arguably the best passing forward in Indiana’s Class of 2025 and really plays more like a point-forward than a true front court guy. He is strong enough to score inside with his excellent footwork, but really is most effective out on the perimeter where his ball-handling and passing ability are guard-like. Playing with Indiana Ice – Gizzi, Slagley does a great job of starting the fast break any time he gets a rebound. High-level passing ability.
