Ty Johnson Ty Johnson 6'3" | PG Depaul Prep | 2021 State #198 Nation IL (DePaul Prep – 2021)
The Loyola commit didn’t quite shoot it as well as he did in the first game, but he completely controlled this contest from his lead guard spot. It started off early with his intensity as was shown on a thunderous slam. Got after it on the defensive end. Pushed in transition getting to the rim. Was excellent as a distributor getting others involved making the simple play over and over.
Jeremiah Jones Jeremiah Jones 6'4" | SG Marian Catholic | 2022 State IL (Marian Catholic – 2022)
Jones is an intriguing 2022 prospect with the arrow going up. Long and angular two guard that can flat out defend on the perimeter. He is one of those wing defender that college coaches love. In this game he got multiple steals that he took the other way for buckets. Slick ball handler that finds the crease in the defense off the bounce.
Martell Webb Martell Webb 6'7" | C Tinley Park | 2022 State IL (Westinghouse – 2022)
Webb is a huge presence on the interior. He mauls opponents with his raw strength. Snatches rebounds with his strong hands in traffic. Seals off his man in the paint for scores. Hit a nice little turnaround from 10 feet. Brick wall defensively in the paint.
Christian Meeks Christian Meeks 6'6" | SF Homewood Flossmoor | 2022 State IL (Homewood Flossmoor – 2022)
Meeks is a high-motor combo forward that is a really effective defender at multiple levels being able to check opponents on the perimeter as well as in the paint against big guys. So effective getting on the glass for second chance buckets. Runs the floor hard scoring a lot in transition with his athleticism.
Kendall Brasfield Kendall Brasfield 6'1" | PG Curie | 2021 State IL (Curie – 2021)
Brasfield lit it up for about a 5 minute stretch in this contest. The Curie two guard is a tough scorer that can get downhill for crafty layups and runners. Flashes some shiftiness to his handles and has creativity finishing around the trees in the paint. Did also hit a three ball.
Cassius Brooks Cassius Brooks 6'3" | SG Curie | 2022 IL (Curie – 2021)
Brooks is a well-built combo guard that pushes in transition which he showed on a coast to coast take along with a clean looking three ball.
