A player that has all of the makings to make one of the bigger jumps after this live period weekend is Devin Bolden Devin Bolden 6'8" | PF IN of Cardinal Ritter High School.

One of the top prospects participating at the Havoc in the Heartland, Bolden displayed his Division I upside for Progeny UAA. He was a consistent finisher around the basket, showcased his ability to face-up from the mid post and be a scoring threat from there, and also dominated the glass at both ends per usual. The 6’7″ forward recently received an offer from Toledo and should have plenty of eyes on him in the upcoming live period.

Bolden was one of the better post prospects I got a chance to watch over the weekend at Run N Slam. He moves so well at his skill position and was very active on the glass even giving his team multiple second chance points. Thought he ran the floor very well and became a mismatch problem vs the defense. Had the game-winning dunk in the game I saw, as well.

Bolden continues to assert himself as one of the best interior post presences in the state of Indiana. He earned Junior All-Star status this season after averaging 20.9 points, 12.6 rebounds, and 1.4 blocks per game for Cardinal Ritter.

Bolden is closing in the 1,000 career point milestone.

We saw Bolden finish with 18 points and 9 rebounds in their 83-68 evening loss to Blackhawk Christian. The 6’7″ junior forward displayed strong hands, a soft finishing touch, and his high-level rebounding ability in that one. However, he was even better in Cardinal Ritter’s first game of the day. In that one Bolden scored 25 points to help lead a 70-66 comeback victory over New Palestine.

Admittedly, Tuesday night was not Bolden’s best performance. He struggled to get clean post catches and was neutralized on the on the offensive glass by University’s length and athleticism. However, as you would expect from the 6’7″ junior big man, Bolden still finished with 9 points and 10 rebounds.

Cardinal Ritter got a tight victory over CHCA in a game that was back and forth throughout the entire contest. Bolden is a talented forward with soft hands and quick feet. Bolden scored off a nice backdoor lob play that Cardinal Ritter ran at least three or four times for easy layups. Bolden also had a great sequence where he got a steal, advanced the basketball and then got it back for a tough layup finish. Later in the game he did the same thing after blocking a shot at the rim, quickly showing his ability to go from making an impact on defense to offense.
