KT Raimey, G, 2020, Olathe North
An elite guard who shut off during the summer as a Mokan Elite performer. He has a terrific bounce to his game and can get to the basket and throw down dunks over opponents. He has great ball-handling skills and can connect from a distance or the mid-range area. Raimey is an overall standout with a high upside.
Mayson Quartlebaum, 6’5, G/F, 2020, Lawrence
A big forward who has good hands for his position and can also score from distance. He can handle the ball and is good at making extra passes and finishing in transition above the rim. Quartlebaum brings a lot of good tolls to the floor and just knows how to make plays. He recently committed to NCAA Division I program Kennesaw State.
Cougar Downing, 6’2, G, 2020, Olathe West
A KC Pacer guard over the summer, Downing has been drawing interest in the offseason. He has the ability to put the ball on the floor and create and can score in a variety of ways. He can shoot the ball from the outside and gets to the basket well off the dribble and score through contact.
DK Middleton, 6’4, G/F, 2020, Free State
A strong, physical two-way guard who can handle the ball and get to the basket. He shoots well and can move inside and connect off the glass and sometimes over the competition. Middleton has a productive summer and helped lead his team in some shootouts. He is a physical defendre and can jump out and swat the ball and finish plays on the opposite end.
Bryce Johnson, 6’5, F, 2020, Lawrence
A solid two-way athlete who brings good size and hustle to the floor. He can connect from several feet out but prefers to score close to the basket and around the rim. He is a smart defender and is good at contesting shots and using his athletic build and overall length to his advantage.
