Expert Analysis
Alan Olsen | Prep Hoops Scout
Absolute beast in the post/powerful and will not get pushed off his spot once he has it. Rebounding machine on both ends of the floor, has nice touch around the basket and decent footwork in the post. Gets to the foul line often because he gets so many offensive boards draws fouls. Strong post defender/moves feet well. Gets up amd down the floor well for how big he is.

I’ve seen a lot of Owen in the past, and up live, and he’s clearly a top prospect in the class, but I maybe only saw him 2-3 times this season, twice as the starting Big for Mitchell’s Sophomore team, and once as the first Big off the bench with the JV. So not a major update on him right now, but he’s the most physical Big in the class and he was dominant and a mismatch at the Sophomore level. He’s an easy D2 scholarship-level prospect and the next Big for Mitchell and Coach Kreutzfeldt to bank on.

The true Big gets JV playing time, where he anchors himself in the paint to get deep post touches. He’s a big and strong kid that translates it on the court as well. He’s one that if he can grow taller, it will skyrocket his value. Would love to see him get to 6’8”-6’9”.
