About Collin
Expert Analysis
Mark Miller | Prep Hoops Scout
One of two returning starters from Milton’s club that finished 17-9 last season, Branch has the ball on a string when he attacks the basket. He can get into the lane with his quickness and aggressiveness, and he can finish with his speed and skill. Branch had 11 points against Oregon and made five of his six foul shots. Branch is on the small side, but he still manages to impact a game with his sticky defense and fast play in transition. Branch averaged 4.6 ppg and 2.1 rpg as a sophomore and is poised to possibly double those numbers as a junior this season.

Collin put in a gritty performance on night one of the Hard Work Region Finals. He’s a tough as nails defender, and all game long was pressuring the ball and putting himself in the right spots off the ball to either take a charge or come up with a steal. Offensively he did a nice job of handling under pressure, and getting into dangerous areas forcing the defense to collapse and leave a teammate open. Collin always had his head scanning the floor as he was constantly looking to create a good look for one of his teammates. Off the ball did a nice job of finding pockets of space to catch and shoot from deep.

Collin Branch was a playmaker among playmakers on his talented Wisconsin Academy team. Not only could he score with his jumper as well as attacking off the bounce, but I also really liked him as a passer and distributor.
