Todd Bieg 6’6″ Washington: A long and lanky post player who plays with a lot of activity around the basket. He has good post moves and can finish with both hands around the rim. He also has some solid dribble moves from the high post that are effective. He averaged 11 points and five rebounds a game as a junior.
Barcus Jackson Barcus Jackson 6'3" | SG Lift for Life | 2021 State MO 6’2″ St. Dominic: A slick ball handling point guard with an excellent feel for the game and who does an excellent job of getting the ball to his teammates when it is time to get buckets. He can also be a creative scorer off the dribble when he calls his number. He averaged 13.5 points and 6.3 assists for a Class 4 district championship team.
Owen Ferrell 6’1″ Sullivan: A very capable guard who can shoot it, handle it and pass it well. He averaged 14 points, four rebounds and four assists a game while shooting 36 percent from 3-point range.
Brayden Foust 6’2″ St. Charles West: A smooth lefty shooting guard who plays well with the ball in his hands or without the ball with his movement. He has a confident stroke from 3-point range, which is especially good from the corners. He has some nice driving moves to the basket to compliment his deep shooting stroke. He averaged 14.7 points and 4.3 assists while making 52 3-pointers.
Mikhai Howard Mikhai Howard 6'0" | PG Webb City | 2021 State MO 6’5″ Hickman: A big-bodied wing player with an excellent skill set on the perimeter. He is a matchup problem with his size and ability to drop off defenders off the dibble with cross-overs and other escape moves. He is also a capable perimeter shooter off the bounce.
Eli Wingert Eli Wingert 6'8" | PF Blue Springs | 2021 State MO 6’1″ St. Dominic: The thick-bodied wing player is a 3-point shooter deluxe. He is a tremendous perimeter shooting threat off the catch and he also moves well without the ball and coming off screens with a quick release. He averaged 11.5 points a game while making 85 3-pointers on a district championship team.
Caleb Maassen 6’4″ Linn: A small-school post player who has excellent footwork and a variety of moves to score around the basket. His go-to move is a spin move, which he can execute in either direction with equal effectiveness. He is strong around the basket with the passing skills to go along with it.
Max Myers 5’9″ Borgia: A little lefty combo guard with a serious stroke from 3-point range. He is good off the catch and coming off screens ready to fire. He averaged eight points a game and made 46 3-pointers, including nine in a single game last season.
