Jeremiah Williams Jeremiah Williams 6'5" | SF Simeon | 2020 State #278 Nation IL (Simeon)
Williams transferred from St. Laurence to Simeon for his senior campaign. The talented wing took a bit to adjust, but once he did he showed he was the player everyone thought he was in the second half of the season. Well-rounded wing that can slash, defend, rebound, and hit an occasional shot. His value at the next level is in his defense and versatility.
Jayden Johnson Jayden Johnson 6'5" | SF Batavia | 2020 State #276 Nation IL (Batavia)
Johnson is one of the best pure shooters in the state regardless of class. The 6’5” small forward is an elite shooter off the catch that moves about as well as anyone without the ball to get open. He did it against high level competition during the summer. Rebounds well for his position and is a solid passer.
Will Wolfe Will Wolfe 6'5" | SF Oswego East | 2020 State IL (Oswego East)
Wolfe is a wiry strong small forward that made the move to Oswego East from Aurora Christian for his senior campaign. With Wolfe he is a sound mid-range jump shooter that consistently put up numbers when he was healthy for the Illinois Wolves on the UAA circuit.
Marcus Skeete Marcus Skeete 6'5" | SF Waubonsie Valley | 2020 State IL (Waubonsie Valley)
Skeete evolved his game over the summer with Hoops Intensity Training and that carried over to his senior season. The small forward slimmed down his frame which improved his athleticism. He also made strides as a shooter especially in that 15-18 foot range. Can take weaker defenders to the block and creates mismatches. Rebounds well.
Saiveon Williams Saiveon Williams 6'5" | SF Curie | 2020 State IL (Curie)
Williams played as a big man for Curie, but projects as a small forward in college. The transfer from South Carolina was huge for one of the top teams in Illinois this season. He rebounds well and finishes around the hoop. Showcased his wing skills more during the summer, but now proved he can play some small ball four as well.
Connor Heaton Connor Heaton 6'6" | SF Central A&M | 2020 State IL (Central A&M)
Heaton was one of the top small high school players in Illinois the last two seasons. He is a versatile player that scores, rebounds, and defends. Excellent glue player at the small college level.
Jimarius Sneed Jimarius Sneed 6'5" | SF Crane | 2020 State IL (Crane)
This Crane small forward has a powerful body and uses it bullying his way through defenders to the cup! Productive wing that had a strong senior season for Crane.
Armond Williams Armond Williams 6'5" | SF Curie | 2020 State IL (Curie)
Williams is the brother of Saiveon mentioned above. Versatile player as well that can play the three or small ball four. Rebounds, defends, and scores in transition.
Davaris Macklin Davaris Macklin 6'5" | SF Carbondale | 2020 State IL (Carbondale)
Stands at 6’4” with quality length. The lefty has a clean looking stroke on his jumper especially from mid-range. Potential as a spot up shooter. Has some projectability and two way potential at the small college level.
