Expert Analysis
Tre Cordon | Prep Hoops Scout
Not many forwards in attendance play with the feel and basketball IQ of that Lusemo. He got multiple defensive rebounds where he took the ball coast to coast and made excellent passes off the live dribble. He finished at a high rate around the rim and had one of the dunks of the weekend in transition against South Central. Independence won the eventual championship and he was arguably their most important piece.

Macharia is having himself a breakout sophomore season in the Independence frontcourt as they’re a contender in the 4A Southwestern Conference. He’s an underrated presence to get to know in the 2027 class given his abilities around the rim. He’s putting up 10.5 points, 6.7 rebounds and 2.1 blocks per contest as a presence around the painted area for the Patriots. He’s worthy of some attention as the spring/summer months approach.
