Alex Wood (Normal U-High)
Current Ranking: #76
Travel Team: Young & Reckless
Wood is a rock solid point guard out of central Illinois who had an outstanding junior campaign. Capable shooter that distributes well.
Alec Millender (St. Rita)
Current Ranking: #78
Travel Team: ET21 Buckeyes
Millender has been the leader of a talented ET21 Buckeyes squad that has showed well this spring on the PrepHoops Circuit. Slick ball handler that dishes the rock and can hit open shots.
Grant Niego (Lyons)
Current Ranking: #81
Travel Team: Chicago Lockdown
Niego is a leader at the point who always has been noted as a solid shooter and pass first point guard. Really improved his athleticism and ability to score off the bounce.
Jashawn Anderson (East St. Louis)
Current Ranking: #82
We haven’t seen Anderson this spring, but what he did during the high school season was enough for D2 and D3 programs to be very intrigued. He isn’t the tallest guard, but pushes the pace and hits open shots.
Jack Kahoun (Oswego)
Current Ranking: #101
Travel Team: Breakaway
Kahoun is a smooth overall player at the point that we saw several times during the high school season. Capable shot maker from the perimeter who will find a nice home at the next level.
Devin Davis (Westinghouse)
Current Ranking: #104
Travel Team: Young & Reckless
Explosive and fast point guard that likes to push the pace. Scored a lot in high school, but was hit and miss when we saw him over the last six months. The talent is definitely there though without question!
Elijah Pickens (Curie)
Current Ranking: #120
Travel Team: Team Rose
Pickens is a diminutive point guard who uses his speed in the open floor to get scores himself or find open teammates. Going to be running the show for a talented Curie squad this year.
Blake McKay (Woodlawn)
Current Ranking: #135
Travel Team: Illinois Bears
McKay is a combo guard who can score it. One of the better scoring guards in southern Illinois who has worked to develop his all-around game.
Jack Baldridge (Timothy Christian)
Current Ranking: #148
Travel Team: Hoops Intensity Training
What we like about Baldridge is the way he controls the game with his passing and the lefty can knock down shots from deep.
Jacob Schadegg (Breese Mater Dei)
Current Ranking: #149
Travel Team: Illinois Bears
Plus shooter from southern Illinois who is an absolute sniper from deep! Fierce player who gets the most out of his ability.
Zach Miller (Hyde Park)
Current Ranking: #152
Travel Team: Full Package
Miller opened our eyes up this spring with a strong showing on the PrepHoops Circuit with Full Package Walker. Slick handling lefty guard with a fluid jumper.
