La Salle (PA)/Roman Catholic (PA) Notable Prospects

RC Xzayvier Brown 6’1 ‘23 Brown who lets the ball talk on offense, plays well out of pick & roll sets. He has a reliable layup package which he uses often when attacking downhill. Brown adapts to situations thrown at him and changes speeds regularly. Takes charges and uses his quickness to allude post-ups from bigger opponents. Brown plays a lot older than his age and has a high basketball IQ. Khalil Farmer Khalil Farmer PG Roman Catholic | 2022 State PA 6’3 ‘22 Farmer who can get hot at a moment’s notice and has microwave abilities. Farmer uses his size and strength to barrel into defenders to get to where he wants to on the floor. He also showed that he could score the ball at all 3 levels. He doesn’t need to ball in his hands to contribute and moves well within the flow of the game. His length allows him to be a capable help defender and he also showed he could come up with steals. Farmer has great instincts of the game and will only get better because of that. Daniel Skillings Daniel Skillings 6'5" | SG Roman Catholic | 2022 State PA 6’5 ‘22 Skillings is walking double-double without a play being drawn up. He has a knack for putting the ball into the hoop. He can score off the catch, create off the bounce or even move into the correct place on the floor. The ball somehow just finds him. Skillings is very assertive on the glass and makes his presence felt collecting rebounds. He allows the game to come to him and stays collective at all times. Skillings length allows him to guard bigger opponents and also lets him block shots with ease. La Salle Samuel Brown 6’2 ’22 Creates off the bounce when going downhill, and sets up shop well inside the paint on the offensive end. He uses his speed to get to wherever he wants on the floor.  Brown is also a regular at the foul line and seeks out contact like he is on the gridiron. He makes hustle plays and keeps possessions alive. He was no stranger to making the extra pass and being an unselfish teammate.  Charles Ireland 6’2 ’21 Ireland showed he could be a constant threat as an off-ball guard converting a handful of times from behind the arc. He has a nice feel for the game and makes an impact on the game without constantly needing the ball. He does a good job on defense of holding his own on bigger opponents and takes away the paint. He also steps up into driving lanes to obtain steals.    Horace Simmons 6’6 ’23 Simmons is a budding wing who has a great base and length for only being a sophomore showed he could score at all 3 levels. He also moves well for his size. He was able to convert on tough passes out of the post. Simmons has the intelligence of the game to move without the ball and take what the defense gives him, which tends to translate to easy buckets. He does a good job of finding a body to box. Simmons whose best basketball is still ahead of him will be fun to watch progress these next few years.
