Here we take a look at forwards in the 2020 class we expect to turn heads and raise their recruiting profile with a strong offseason.
Ty Bowman, 6’5, F, 2020, Chanute
Also a football standout, Bowman is running this summer with Victory out of the Joplin area. He is a strong, physical athlete who runs the floor exceptionally well, rebounds, defends and is a terrific passer. He has shown the ability to pass, find the open man and get on the boards.
Chandler Marks, 6’5, F, 2020, Manhattan
Chandler was very active on defense, contesting any shot in his area on Saturday. He recovered quickly from a missed shot with a chasedown block and also used his motor to help his team on the boards.
King Sutton, 6’4, F, 2020, Topeka, SSA Elite Black
Sutton is an ultra athletic forward who brings a hard work attitude to the court and a willingness to compete in the paint. He is a terrific athlete who can play above the rim at both ends of the floor and often surprises opponents with his shot blocking. Offensively he does a lot of his work in the paint, but can also take advantages against mismatched slower players on the perimeter as he can handle it a little and beat others bigs off the bounce.
Reece Williams, 6’7, F, Leavenworth
A skilled big man is a terrific high post game. He is a fine passer who looks to distribute and can make a defense guess. He can also put the ball on the floor and make something happen for himself. A player with great post moves.
