As summer ball is now in full swing, Prep Hoops Kansas takes a look at some of the state’s top players on the rise in a variety of positions.
Below are some of the state’s players to keep your eyes on in the 2020 class
Trey Reid, 5’11, G, 2020, Maize South
A scrappy guard who looks to play physical Force turnovers and score at the other end before opponents understand what happened. He has great handles in one-on-one situations and plays well on the move. I transition player who can also shoot from deep if he has an open look he doesn’t back down and is good at getting his teammates involved.
Jaden McGrath, 6’0, G, 2020, Independence
A physical player on both ends of the floor, McGrath has a good feel for the guard position. He I can create plays for himself and shoots well from distance. He is also good at getting his teammates the ball and finds the open man inside. An offensive threat whenever he has the ball in his hands, opponents have to stay on their toes when he’s behind the arc.
Elijas Watson, 5’9, G, 2020, Topeka
A nice ball handler who can weave his way through traffic and get to the basket. He changes directions on a dime and is a shifty player to keep your eyes on. He also rebounds well for his size and doesn’t mind playing physical against players who have a few inches on him.
Alton Easley Jr., 5’10, G, Turner
a great piece for the backcourt who runs hard and plays physical. He can shoot well from distance and can get going quickly. He also runs off the ball well and shoots after the catch and looks to contribute on the defensive side as a ball pressure defender who keeps his hands up and looks to tip away passes.
Sean Pleimann, 6’1, G, 2020, Blue Valley
A crafty ball handler who can get through traps and get to the basket, Pleimann showed the ability to handle the point guard duties and has good court vision and showed smart intuitions when he has to make a move in a hurry. He has good height and a solid frame.
