Continue ReadingThe HS season is over and we are diving into the individual player rankings for the freshman. We move over to the power forwards and centers.
There will probably be a lot of movement from now until the next HS season since many will train, play in big events, possibly get more exposure than their smaller schools to fully be evaluated versus some of the best in the West.
Here we go:
1. Noah Amenhauser Noah Amenhauser 7'0" | C Estrella Foothills | 2023 State #270 Nation AZ (Estrella Foothills)
-A huge post player with big feet and hands has advanced inside moves. He can face-up from mid and in and rebounds well.
2. Landon Schumaker Landon Schumaker 6'6" | PF AZ Compass Prep | 2023 AZ (Basha)
-A highly skilled 4-man can shoot it to the 3pt line plus uses multiple counter moves to score it. Can create own shot with a nice handle.
3. Oliver Hinder Oliver Hinder 6'8" | C Corona del Sol | 2023 State AZ (Corona del Sol)
-A fluid shot blocker runs really well. He is light on his toes and moves shockingly well in space. Dunks it easily and rebounds in area.
4. Isaac Hymes Isaac Hymes 6'9" | PF Phhoenix Prep | 2023 State AZ (Hillcrest Prep)
-A long finesse player can shoot it well and blocks shots in area. Just needs more PT.
5. Royce Ramos Royce Ramos 6'5" | PF Rancho Solano Prep | 2023 State AZ (Pinnacle)
-A very tough cover from inside and out is very cerebral and strong for age. The Pioneers would be smart to play through him next year.
6 others:
1. Seydou Tamboura Seydou Tamboura 6'7" | PF St. Mary's | 2023 State AZ (St. Mary’s)
-Had to sit the year from the last minute transfer but will make waves next year with his athleticism and rebounding.
2. Shane Williams Shane Williams 6'6" | PF South Mountain | 2023 State AZ (South Mountain)
-A fluid shot blocker, runner and dunker. High upside player for the Jaguars.
3. Jordan Kuac Jordan Kuac 6'5" | PF Ironwood | 2023 State AZ (Ironwood)
-Athletic forward with an insane motor. He explodes off the ground and blocks shots and rebounds at a high level.
4. Duce Robinson Duce Robinson 6'6" | PF Pinnacle | 2023 AZ (Pinnacle)
-A chiseled power post player who moves well in space. A 3-sport star shockingly has basketball as his 3rd sport. (Football and baseball).
5. River Bell River Bell 6'5" | PF Paradise Honors | 2023 State AZ (Paradise Honors)
-A high effort face-up forward rebounds well in area and can shoot it from the perimeter. Younger brother of Wyatt Bell Wyatt Bell 6'2" | CG Paradise Honors | 2021 State AZ is already 5 inches taller.
6. Tyson Wheeler Tyson Wheeler 6'5" | PF Chandler | 2023 State AZ (Chandler)
-A long rebounder who can score it inside. He is a tad raw but uses his length, height and athleticism to score it inside.
