DeCorian Temple DeCorian Temple 6'7" | PF Orchard Lake St. Mary's | 2022 State MI (PF, Orchard Lake St. Mary’s)
Prep Hoops Michigan Ranking: #36
Temple can be a difference maker with his rebounding alone. He uses a combination of strength and verticality to dominate the glass. Temple gets off the ground quickly and snags the ball at it’s highest point.
Nic Stump Nic Stump 6'5" | PF Grand Haven | 2022 State MI (PF, Grand Haven)
Prep Hoops Michigan Ranking: #88
Stump is really bouncy in the lane. He’s not afraid to keep tipping the ball to keep it alive, eventually grabbing it and securing the board. Stump is very active on the offensive glass, creating second chance opportunities for himself and his team.
Nick Ellis Nick Ellis 6'7" | PF Grand Ledge | 2022 State MI (PF, Grand Ledge)
Prep Hoops Michigan Ranking: #109
I’ve written a lot about Ellis since this fall, and it looks like he’s going to make that continue. I really like the things he’s doing for Grand Ledge early in the high school season. Ellis is controlling the paint and helping to limit teams to 1 look.
Michael Calhoun Michael Calhoun 6'7" | PF Riverview Gabriel Richard | 2022 State MI (PF, Riverview Gabriel Richard)
Prep Hoops Michigan Ranking: #119
Calhoun is an absolute grinder in the paint. He’s more than willing to battle for position under the rim. Calhoun consistently boxes out when a shot goes up. He has a lot of strength in his legs and he uses it to move his opponent.
Brandon DeVries Brandon DeVries 6'4" | PF Kalamazoo Christian | 2022 State MI (PF, Kalamazoo Christian)
Prep Hoops Michigan Ranking: #161
DeVries is the shortest of the power forwards on this list, but don’t let it fool you, he will grab boards with some of the best. He has a nose for the ball and is able to find it off the rim and corral the rebound. DeVries isn’t afraid to get physical in the paint when going after a rebound.
