Curtis Joseph is an enigma as an undersized post player, but he is not out of place in the paint. He has the size to control bigger players and remain effective on both sides of the ball. East Ascension could be one of the most dangerous teams in the state with their size and athleticism and Joseph will serve as the anchor defensively and offensively. His production will be key to their success and his next level potential.

Joseph continues his upward trajectory, constantly showcasing a hard-nosed, bully-ball approach to the game. He dominates on both sides of the ball, particularly where it matters most: in the paint. He controls the middle with active hands and next-level athleticism. Crucially, Joseph also proved he can step outside and consistently knock down the 3-ball, forcing defenses to respect his spacing. This new layer to his game makes him one of the premier stock risers in the state

Listed as a Center/Power Forward, Joseph plays the game with the tenacity and physicality of a much bigger player. Despite his size, he uses his strength to overpower opponents in the paint, reminiscent of a power running back constantly moving toward the rim. An active rebounder on both ends, Joseph dominated the boards throughout the showcase, terrorizing offensive players and establishing himself as a presence inside. He’s skilled at using his body to get to the rim and has shown the ability to knock down shots, but it’s his relentless aggression and competitive nature that truly stand out. His selection to the second team is a testament to his bully mentality. He basically stole the spot by being a physical force and a proven game changer.
