Seryee Lewis (Morgan Park)
Current Ranking: #5
Travel Team: Mac Irvin Fire
Lewis solidified his spot at the top of the board with a solid spring with the Mac Irvin Fire playing next to one of the most dominant posts in the country in Michael Foster. He averaged 10 points per game while shooting an outstanding 64% from the field and grabbing 5 boards. Bouncy four man that brings athleticism and quickness to the table around the hoop. Skill continues to flash.
Martice Mitchell (Bloom)
Current Ranking: #7
Travel Team: Young & Reckless
Mitchell is the best center in the 2020 class. This Bloom five man is a stretch five with his ability to shoot it from mid-range and three although he can fall in love with it at times. Great running the floor in transition. Rim runner that throws down lobs with force. Improving skill on the block making quick moves. Major shot blocking presence as he might be the best rim protector in the class.
Sam Schultz (Oswego East)
Current Ranking: #17
Travel Team: Hoops Intensity Training
Schultz is a strong bodied four man that is an anchor down low scoring with efficiency on the block. Loves spin moves from the mid-post area where he has become effective attacking from this spring. Quality area rebounder that snatches them in traffic.
Ryan Isaacson (Hinsdale Central)
Current Ranking: #18
Travel Team: Chicago Lockdown
Hinsdale Central and Chicago Lockdown continue to combine to produce D1 face up four men that can stretch the floor. Next up is Isaacson. He can really shoot it from three in pick and pop situations and is a better athlete than given credit!
Devon House (Sterling Newman)
Current Ranking: #22
Travel Team: Iowa Barnstormers
House is an undersized five with an old school back to the basket game. He loves to use his footwork to beat opponents on the block finishing with a soft touch. House has expanded some being able to hit a face up jumper and he rebounds very well in his area.
Aaron Tims (Hinsdale South)
Current Ranking: #25
Travel Team: Team RWA
High level athlete that gets to the glass! That is the name of the game for this Hinsdale South product. Tims is a bouncy four man who attacks the offensive glass and rim runs in transition!
Chris Conway (Naperville Central)
Current Ranking: #26
Travel Team: Indy Heat
Conway has a lot of intriguing tools with his size and skill level. The consistent production just hasn’t been shown to this point. He has potential to breakout this upcoming season as a late bloomer!
Bennett Kwiecinski (Loyola)
Current Ranking: #29
Travel Team: Illinois Wolves
Bennett emerged as one of the better post players for the Wolves this spring. Averaged 4.5 points (43% from the field) and grabbed 4.8 rebounds per game this spring on the Under Armour Circuit. Face up four man that likes to handle it and shoot. Rebounded pretty well on the UAA circuit.
Kee Hargrow (Hyde Park)
Current Ranking: #32
Travel Team: Young & Reckless
Hargrow is a broad shouldered, strong, and athletic four man. He is still raw skill wise, but is so intriguing with his athleticism and playing above the rim. Defensive presence with versatility to guard multiple positions.
Armond Williams (East St. Louis)
Current Ranking: #36
Travel Team: Southwest Jets
Williams is an intriguing long term prospect. Long and lanky center that runs the floor with fluidity, blocks shots, and displays mobility around the rim. He showed glimpses last season at East St. Louis and has continued to make strides this spring with the Southwest Jets.
