Paolo BancheroPaoloBanchero6'10" | PFO'Dea | 2021State#3NationWA PF 6’10 O’Dea High School Seattle, WA (Duke University)
Over the last year, Banchero‘s body has really developed. Now standing at 6’10 and 245 pounds, he is a man amongst boys at the high school level and a rare prospect given that he is an inside-outside threat. The pace he plays with and his feel around the rim allows him to make counters and score almost effortlessly. His three-point shooting ability off the catch and off the bounce was the most impressive part of his game this weekend. He knocked down spot-ups, step back‘s, hop backs, turn arounds,

His three-point shooting ability off the catch and off the bounce was the most impressive part of his game this weekend. He knocked down spot-ups, step back‘s, hop backs, turn arounds, you name it he showcased it. He is one of the elite players in the country and arguably the number one prospect overall in America. Coach K and Duke have a great class coming in and Pablo is the cream of the crop.
Micheal Foster PF 6’10 Hillcrest Prep Glendale, AZ (Uncommitted)
Foster is another guy who is an elite prospect in the class and a man amongst boys. His strong chisel frame looks almost pro ready now. His low post presents on the defensive end was very fun to watch. He rebounds well out of his area and is a solid ball-handler in transition. I was most impressed this weekend with Foster‘s ability to shoot the three. He knocked down timely jump shots over and over again for Hillcrest’s Prep. He is another rare prospect looking to make the jump into the G League next year.
Frankie Collins
FrankieCollins6'2" | PGCoronado | 2021State#58NationNV PG 6’1 Air Nado Las Vegas, NV (Michigan University)
Collins is a consistent lead guard that is always on the attack. His pace and quickness allow him to get in the paint and dictate the tempo of the game. Collins is more of a break you down and gets by you prospect than a pick and roll guard which allows other players to play in space around him that creates easy scoring opportunities for them and himself. Collins has that "IT" factor with his athleticism. He is explosive off the bounce which allows him to finish above the rim or against the biggest defenders. He a fierce competitor that loves to win. Juwan Howard at Michigan found that perfect fit in Frankie.
Shane NowellShaneNowell6'5" | SFEastside Catholic | 2021State#85NationWA SG 6’6 Eastside Catholic High School Seattle, WA (University Arizona)
Nowell is a lefty shooting guard with a smooth stroke off the bounce. This weekend he showcased his three-point shooting ability. Playing alongside Banchero, he was able to get easy looks on the perimeter and easy finishes. A two-way player that has a great defensive upside due to his strength and lateral ability. He guarded the other team’s best perimeter player every game. As a big guard, he has the rare ability to see plays before they happen and the unselfish mentality to deliver it right on time. Arizona is getting another All PAC-12 performer in Shane.
Kaden Perry
KadenPerry6'9" | CBattle Ground | 2021State#16NationWA C 6’10 Battleground High School Battleground, WA (Gonzaga University)
Perry set the standard for the center position this weekend looking like Jared Allen of the Cleveland Cavaliers. He blocks shots, cleaned up on rebounds, and dunked everything he could around the paint. He has elite athleticism for his frame as a shot-blocker and finisher. His high motor allows him to make plays out of his area and was able to knock down some jump shots on the perimeter as well. A double-double guy who impacts winning at a high level. Gonzaga will polish up his offensive skills and Mark Few will inherit another first-team all WCC player.
