In this article:
We begin our examination of the post prospects in the class of 2023 with the players at the position that made the biggest leaps in the latest PHI Rankings!
Owen Freeman Owen Freeman 6'10" | C Moline | 2023 State #179 Nation IL (Bradley Bourbonnais)
Current Ranking: #9
Previous Ranking: #23
Freeman had a strong close to the fall and is making an impact this winter as well at Rock N Ball. He really impressed us at Pangos camp. High motor kid that is relentless on the boards and protecting the rim. Mobility on the defensive end is going to be something that college coaches love about this prospect. Offensively he has major bounce in the paint along with touch when he needs to use it.
Solomon Mosley Solomon Mosley 6'8" | C Kenwood | 2023 State IL (St. Rita)
Current Ranking: #40
Previous Ranking: NR
Mosley is a 6’7” four man that played with a lot of energy throughout the Pangos camp. He high points rebounds in traffic. Quick to the glass for put backs and flashes some skill around the hoop with a hook shot.
Cole Bonder Cole Bonder 6'6" | PF Libertyville | 2023 IL (Libertyville)
Current Ranking: #65
Previous Ranking: NR
Bonder is a young power forward that was crafty around the hoop on his post scores. Finished dump offs and worked well in the pick/roll game at Details Training. The post has some touch on a mid-range shot as well.
Kade Lustenberger Kade Lustenberger 6'5" | SF Carterville | 2023 State IL (Carterville)
Current Ranking: #78
Previous Ranking: #92
Only 6’4” right now but should continue to grow. Has touch around the hoop with a hook shot, runs the floor with fluidity in the open floor, and can crash the offensive glass.
