Luke Adams, 5’11, G, 2021, Blue Valley North
An important piece for BVN since his freshman year, Adams brings a solid combination of high percentage buckets and smart handles to the floor. Straight off a productive summer with Mokan 2021, Adams has shown improvement on the defensive side of the ball and a continued growth as a facilitator. Adams is an intelligent player and shows leadership and experience.
Andrew Orr, 6’8, PF, 2021, Blue Valley North
Orr has a solid outside shot and a soft touch around the basket. He can dominate at times and shows an aggressive nature and a high IQ. He is a good passer and a leader both vocally and by example. He makes those around better, smarter and has the size and ability inside to make teams try their best to avoid his area on the floor.
Jake Wolff, 6’2, G, 2021, Blue Valley
Wolff impressed this summer with Mokan as he showcased his handles and scoring potential. He is an improved player from a season ago as he can make noise on both sides of the ball. He plays strong and looks to body his way to the basket and can even rebound well for his size. A skilled player overall.
Tank Young, 5’7, G, 2021, St. Thomas Aquinas
Arguably one of the state’s top football prospects in the 2021 class, Young is a dynamic guard armed with elite quickness and the ability to break down defenses off the bounce. He has terrific athleticism that can translate on both sides of the ball as he can get to the basket and score or stay with the ball and make life incredibly difficult for the lead ball handler.
