Harrison Ogochukwu Harrison Ogochukwu 6'8" | PF Orchard Lake St. Mary's | 2021 State MI (2021 6’8” Orchard Lake St. Mary)
Ogochukwu is a very good basketball player and when he comes to play he is an excellent basketball player. He has the skills to play on the wing. When his effort matches his skill he will be exceptional.
Javante Randle (2021 6’10” Detroit Frederick Douglass)
Randle has grown into his body after having a growth spurt and it shows on the court. He has improved his ball handling, developed a very nice shooting stroke and will still go to work in the paint. He has become a rim protector also.
Nate Claerbut (2021 6’10” Zeeland East)
Claerbut at 6’10” is long and mobile as a basketball player. He is very good at facing up and hitting the midrange shot. He needs to get stronger in the post but that will come. He is getting better at protecting the rim.
Logan Carson Logan Carson 6'9" | PF Buchanan | 2021 State MI (2021 6’9” Buchanan)
Carson is an outstanding prospect with strength. Being strong enables him to dribble, drive and finish and it also allows him to post up. He plays hard on both the offensive and defensive end of the court.
Michael Reed Michael Reed 6'8" | PF Muskegon | 2021 State MI (2021 6’8” Muskegon)
Reed is a dominant force inside but can also knock down mid range shots and threes. Defensively he is a rim protector and very good rebounder. He is a leader on the court.
Blake Woodward Blake Woodward 6'9" | C Romeo | 2021 State MI (2021 6’9” Romeo)
Woodward is an excellent post player and rebounder despite not being a leaper. He makes smart decisions on the court both offensively and defensively. He keeps his hands high on the defensive end which leads to deflections and blocks.
Gabe Quillan (2021 6 8” Grand Rapids Catholic Central)
Quillan is an excellent score and rebounder. He has been a double/double machine in tournaments this summer. He has nice size and strength.
