Stone Jeffries, 6’2, G, 2019, Bishop Miege
Jeffries has long been known as an outside shooter but has taken his game to another level this season, showing the ability to handle the ball and taking on the responsibilities of taking care of the ball. He can drive to the basket off the bounce and score off the dribble as well.
Corbett Kimberlin, 6’0, G, 2019, Chanute
Kimberlin is among the state’s most underrated outside shooters, armed with confidence, a quick trigger and a lot of range. He can consistently make shots well beyond the 3-point arc and has shown the ability to lead a team at the point this season as well.
Monroe Morgan, 6’2, G, 2019, Baldwin
An athletic guard with good size, Morgan is strong in transition and shows the ability to finish on the run. He has the ability to handle the ball a little, can get into the gaps of a defense off the bounce and has a nice pull-up game off the dribble. He is averaging 12.5 points, 3.8 rebounds and is shooting 38 percent from the field.
Trey Myrie, 6’0, G, 2019, Field Kindley
Myrie is a well-rounded guard who impacts the game all over the floor as evidenced by his state line. At 6’0, Myrie averages 16 points, 7 rebounds, 4.3 assists and 3.3 steals and has made six 3-pointers in four games.
Taegan Sumner, 6’1, G, 2019, Rossville. @taegansumner
A left hander, Sumner is a shot maker who can knock down perimeter shots from behind the 3-point arc, handles it well and can create offense off the dribble. He is fast with the ball and can go from end-to-end in the open floor.
