Slots into one of team’s post players but can fit into wing spot as well with versatility and mobility as a slashing 3. Battles underneath for rebounds on both sides while utilizing wing span and vertical. Liked his timing around the cup to play off 2 feet at times when needed. Poised and disciplined when drawing plus one defenders. Has ability to spread the floor at times and is comfortable on the handle if needed. Ceiling should continue to increase for the athletic forward.
Landon Carlson stood out as one of the top performers on Saturday at the Jayhawk Jam, making a strong impact with his relentless work on the glass. He consistently positioned himself well, pursued rebounds with toughness, and created extra possessions for his team on both ends of the floor. His motor and physicality set the tone, allowing him to control the boards against solid competition. Carlson’s rebounding presence was a key factor in his standout performance, showing his value as a player who does the dirty work and makes winning plays.
A 6’4″ forward who is a very good small school talent in the NWMO area. He averaged nearly 20 points and 10 rebounds a game as a freshman. He has a solid built and a versatile skill set. He puts the ball on the floor well to score on the drive. He is also a capable 3-point shooter, especially from the corners. He had a strong summer playing with the NW United 15U squad. He is going to be a problem in Class 1 for the next three years.
A 6’3″ forward who emerged as a young small-school standout in the Northwest part of the state. He is a high energy player who was capable of producing a double double in almost any game. He rebounds out of his area on defense and can also crash the offensive boards. He finished well around the basket and he can shoot it from the perimeter. He averaged 15 points a game as a freshman in leading King City to a 19-11 record.
