Expert Analysis
Will Armishaw | Prep Hoops Scout
Welker, a wing out of Brewster Academy in New Hampshire, checks in at #42 among the small forwards and #172 overall. The long 6’8″ lefty moves incredibly well for someone of his size, particularly when covering ground in the open floor. He’s capable of operating as a grab and go rebounder, does a nice job of passing out of the post, and has the ability to get to the rim as a finisher when attacking closeouts. His perimeter jumper is fluid and he has the athleticism needed to finish above the rim in space. Defensively, his length is an asset, both as a rim protector coming from the help side and when making plays in passing lanes. Welker has yet to announce his future plans.
