Ibe checks in as the top-ranked available prospect, but there should be a number of suitors after the transfer portal dust settles as the 7-foot-1 big man continued to present intriguing flashes of dominance throughout the season. His catching and finishing in the paint became more fluid and dependable as was his mentality of controlling the boards for a prospect of his size. I’d still give the shot-blocking edge to Huan in comparison, but Ibe has shown progression in this aspect of his game over the high school season as well. Like Huan, Ibe will be more of a developmental piece (as most bigs his size are), that could really pop under the right staff at the next level.
