2018 Rankings Breakdown: Possible Summer Stock Boosters (Part 2)
As the breakdowns for the continue, we aim to highlight those who we believe could see an uptick in recruitment this summer.
Below, we run down some possible summer stock boosters that were included in the rankings:
JADEN FAULKNER | 6’4 G | E. ROOSEVELT/DC PREMIER | #47 OVERALL

Faulkner is the starting quarterback on the football team at Roosevelt, but can more than hold his own on he hardwood. At 6’4, with a nearly 6’9 wingspan, he sees the floor well and is an adept paint getter. Faulkner is a naturally talented athlete, and a high level competitor.
LINCOLN YEUTTER | 6’1 G | BULLIS/JERSEY SHORE WARRIORS | #48 OVERALL
There are so many things we can say about Yeutter, but one fact that is undeniable is that he’s a winner. He’s an IAC Champion, and has won several championships at the AAU level. Yeutter is a strong defender, a reliable playmaker, and a capable scorer at the lead guard spot.
JOSH MACK | 6’1 G | GORETTI/EG PREMIERE | #51 OVERALL

Mack is a glue guy that every team needs. He can be equally effective with the ball as he is without, and can defend several positions. Not only is Mack a high character kid on and off the court, but a kid that you won’t have to motivate to play hard. He gets it.
ELIJAH BOWENS | 5’10 G | MARET/VA ELITE | #67 OVERALL
One thing we really like about Bowens is his shot making ability. He’s very skilled, and gets good elevation on his jump shot. Bowens will be expected to pick up his production at Maret next season, but that shouldn’t be much of an issue.
JUSTIN NWOSU | 6’5 F | ST. ANDREW’S/DISTRICT BASKETBALL CLUB | #69 OVERALL
Nwosu is a mismatch nightmare at the forward position. Not only is he highly productive on the glass, but Nwosu can make shots from all over the floor. He’s quick and skilled enough to blow by bigger defenders. Nwosu can also score with his back to the basket, and is a strong finisher who seeks contact.
