Profile:
Norvell is the state’s #2 prospect in the class of 2016. He is a smooth scoring lefty wing that has consistently gotten better throughout his career and showed he has the ability to take over games when needed. He is coming off a strong summer with the Mac Irvin Fire where he was one of their primary offensive weapons.
Odds to Win:
5/1
Why he Can Win:
Simeon. He is the best player on the state’s premier program and a team that as always will be one of the best 4A teams in the state of Illinois. Norvell should put up consistent production throughout his senior season while playing in high profile games both in the public league and outside of it.
Obstacles to Win:
Norvell has the history of Simeon players to live up too. Players like Jabari Parker and Derrick Rose. Will voters choose a player that, although he is without a doubt a high major recruit and one of the premier players this year, he is not in that same elite five star category.
