Kyle Pock Kyle Pock 6'7" | SF Bolivar | 2023 State #286 Nation MO 6’6 Bolivar: A very skilled combo forward who has an excellent stroke from well beyond the 3-point line. Not only can he stretch the defense, but he has excellent moves from the high post, including an effective spin move to escape defenders. He will also throw down a dunk in traffic with his athleticism. He can also facilitate the offense with his passing ability. He already has a Division I offer from Missouri State.
Cameron Williams Cameron Williams 6'8" | PF Cape Girardeau Central | 2023 State MO 6’7 Cape Girardeau Central: A big bodied power forward who is a very effective Stretch 4 with his ability to knock down 3-pointers off the pick and pop. He also has solid post moves and a good shooting touch in the lane. He had several big games as a freshman in the rugged SEMO Conference.
Izaak Porter Izaak Porter 6'7" | SG Father Tolton | 2023 State MO 6’7 Greenwood: Young power forward who had an impressive freshman campaign with a talented Greenwood team. He knows how to maneuver around the basket with his mobility and length. He can also step out to the high post area to make plays with his jumper and ability to put the ball on the floor.
Clayton Ernst Clayton Ernst 6'8" | PF Jackson | 2023 State MO 6’8 Jackson: The latest in the long line of talented forwards to come from Jackson, Clayton played a big factor in the Indians’ run to a district championship as a freshman. He has good length and uses it on the defensive end to block shots. He has good mobility and he can inside as well as stepping outside to knock down 3-pointers.
Evens Appollon 6’9 Father Tolton: A young back to the basket post player who has improved by leaps and bounds over the past season. He has always displayed good rebounding instincts, but now he is learning how to use his size to score around the basket with improved footwork and the development of his jump hook. This young manhas a big upside.
Ethan Wiley Ethan Wiley 6'5" | PF Battle | 2023 State MO 6’5 Battle: A robust power forward who has a nice combination of strength and mobility in the paint. He is difficult to move when he establishes his position in the post and he can finish well with drop steps and jump hooks. He is also a rebounding machine who will also get out of his area to board.
Harrison Doennig Harrison Doennig 6'6" | PF Springfield Kickapoo | 2023 State MO 6’6 Kickapoo: Had a chance to watch this young man quite a bit this summer and was very impressed with his athleticism and skill set. He will score and rebound aggressively around the basket, but he will also run the court in transition and make a play off the dribble to score to make a good pass.
