Orleans, who had multiple strong showings this spring and summer, has a chance to be one of the MIAA’s most productive post prospects this winter. A physically imposing big man, Orleans never takes a play off, has a nose for the basketball, and appears to get better with each passing month. He has a strong frame, isn’t afraid to play physically, and is a plus athlete. While he can impact a game in a variety of ways as a scorer and versatile defender, his ability to control the glass stands out. He does a good job of boxing out big forwards and is impressive in his ability to outmaneuver quicker guards for loose, long rebounds. With his work rate and athleticism, he’s a force on the boards on both ends of the floor. He should be a walking double-double threat for Attleboro this winter and could turn out to be one of the MIAA’s best.

Orleans, who didn’t play during the high school season this winter, checks into our latest rankings at #135 after a few solid showings on the travel circuit. A physically imposing post, Orleans stands out in layup lines with his power and athleticism. Once the games start, he makes his presence known as a rim runner in transition and strong post defender. He has good hands for a big, can finish with either hand by the rim, and is relentless in his pursuit of the basketball. Defensively, he’s capable of switching onto the perimeter in ball screen action, but is best when guarding in the post. He does a good job of walling up, holds his box when the shot goes up, and can rebound in and out of his area. He should continue to draw the attention of regional D3’s this summer and is another potential stock riser going forward.
