There is a lot of talent in the paint this year in Michigan, led by the senior class. Here are 10 must see senior post prospects.
Nick Branton Nick Branton 6'8" | C South Lyon East | 2020 State MI (6’8″, C, South Lyon East)
Branton is a physical presence with a quickly developing game. He’s gotten quicker off the floor and has become a more ferocious finisher.
Ryan Corner Ryan Corner 6'10" | PF Allendale | 2020 State MI (6’10″, PF, Allendale)
Corner has been high on my list for a while. He’s a versatile big, possessing a nice mid range jumper. Corner is an aggressive rebounder and high percentage scorer in the paint.
Justin DeGraaf Justin DeGraaf 6'7" | PF Hudsonville | 2020 State MI (6’7″, PF, Hudsonville)
DeGraaf has really proven himself this season. While he’s not huge at 6’7″, he’s very strong and likes to put a body people so he can get a rebound.
William Dunn William Dunn 6'8" | PF Quincy | 2020 State #458 Nation MI (6’8″, PF, Quincy)
Dunn fits the new mold power forward. He’s excellent off the pick and pop and can stretch a defense.
Nick Edington Nick Edington 6'7" | PF Pickford | 2020 State MI (6’7″, PF, Pickford)
Edington recently scored his 1000th point. He’s a tough player with soft hands around the rim.
Colin Golson Colin Golson 6'6" | PF Ferndale | 2020 State MI (6’6″, F, Ferndale)
It’s tough to categorize Golson into a position. He’s such an athletic rebounder that I couldn’t leave him off the list.
Iasiah Jackson (6’9″, PF, Warren Mott)
Jackson is an exciting defensive highlight reel. He gets off the floor quickly and sends the ball back to the shooter.
Jared Lawson Jared Lawson 6'7" | PF Detroit Loyola | 2020 State MI (6’8″, PF, Detroit Loyola)
Lawson is another bona fide rim protector. He alters and blocks shots with regularity. Lawson has a lot of potential.
Matt Nicholson Matt Nicholson 7'0" | C Clarkston | 2020 State #221 Nation MI (7’0″, C, Clarkston)
With about a 7’3″ wingspan, Nicholson is tough to deal with. He dominates the glass, is an elite defender, and has shown great improvement offensively.
Isaiah Sanders Isaiah Sanders 6'5" | PF Cass Tech | 2020 State MI (6’5″, PF, Cass Tech)
Sanders is a bit undersized for an elite post player, but he makes up for it with fight and determination. The way he’s willing to battle in the paint is special.
