Expert Analysis
Sam Duren | Prep Hoops Scout
A lefty at his height and with true perimeter skills, what’s not to like? Especially as he’s put together some impressive scoring performances for a Bishop Kelley team that earned a Regionals host in a cut throat 5A district. Good vision and passing as well, he has one of the more offensive skillsets in Oklahoma. D2 Colorado School of Mines did an outstanding job of identifying the bigger picture with Essman and securing his commitment. Will need the college level weight room, but still has a fantastic foundation to be built on.

The tall junior guard is a long strider, who eats up ground with big steps. That made him a consistent rim threat in transition and halfcourt for the Comets. But it wasn’t just him looking to score. Essman had fantastic feeds to his teammates when the defense converged on him. He showed his full array of passing ability with great touch passes out of the high post and accurate lobs to cutting teammates. Essman was the engine that made the Bishop Kelley go. While also scoring some tough “old fashion three point plays” on drives in the second half. With his combination of size and playmaking instincts, he’s becoming a very intriguing prospect who could rise quickly in the junior class. Bishop Kelley would win 55-49, setting up a tough test with Regionals hosts Edison on Friday night.
