My admiration of Wimberly grew even more in the playoffs. This young man has come so far in his 4 years of high school basketball. Wimberly is without a doubt a next level point guard.

Wimberly has proven himself as a player and prospect this season. He can make plays at both ends of the floor and has developed a tremendous game between the ears.

I’ve written about him repeatedly this season, and with good reason. Wimberly has proven his game and did it again last night. He attacked the rim, but showed patience in doing so. Wimberly hit 2 feet in the paint and used his pivot foot to create an easy lay in. He also showed the ability to initiate contact and play off of it when he attacked his defender, shrugged him off and finished with a layup. Wimberly showed a nasty inside-out dribble move that forced a foul out of his defender. He showed a lot of fire and grit in this game as well. Wimberly hit the floor for a critical loose ball and had the smarts to call a timeout and keep possession. He also hit a dagger layup to put Lincoln up 4 with 7.8 seconds left.

Wimberly is a very underrated floor general. He has next level floor vision and passing abilities. I say that with 0 doubt in that statement. Wimberly plays the game at his pace and brings energy to the defensive end as well.

Steal alert! Whatever college program gets in on this young man and adds him to their program could be getting a big time steal. He plays the game at a high speed and can pass the ball on target while on the move. Wimberly can create for himself and his teammates in the open floor.

Wimberly is another player that has belonged on this list for a while now. I’ve seen him live and in person within a month and I have no doubt that he can be a point guard at the next level. Wimberly can control pace and feel as a primary ball handler and playmaker. He looks to make the right pass at the right time and isn’t afraid to do it off a ball fake or 2 feet. Coaches at the next level are going to want to take a serious look.
