#36 Tevonta Jackson Tevonta Jackson 6'1" | PG Roosevelt | 2023 State IA (Springfield Lanphier – 2023)
Last Year’s Rank: NR
Jackson is a super athletic lead guard that can change the game with his speed and the energy he brings to the game. Burst in transition with the rock. In the half court he is learning to run a team while still finding his spots to score.
#37 Jeremiah Talton Jeremiah Talton 6'6" | SF Quincy Senior | 2022 State IL (Quincy – 2022)
Last Year’s Rank: NR
Long and lanky wing that has added strength since his sophomore season. What we like about Talton is his projectability on both ends. Plus shooter that has a free and easy release from beyond the arc. Length plays well defensively and he is willing to sacrifice his body to take a charge.
#38 Grant Newell Grant Newell 6'7" | PF Whitney Young | 2021 State IL (Whitney Young – 2021)
Last Year’s Rank: #25
Newell has been on the radar for a long time. Still unsigned the Dolphins power forward is a stretch four that has been much more consistent with his motor and production over the last six months. Quick to the glass, runs the floor, and is a sound jump shooter. D1s are missing out here.
#39 Patrick Robinson Patrick Robinson 6'4" | SG Oswego East | 2022 State IL . (Oswego East – 2022)
Last Year’s Rank: NR
Robinson is a new name that will break out on the high school scene. Powerfully built two guard that can score from multiple levels using his strength to go through opponents while also knocking down jumpers. Natural scorer that rebounds well too.
#40 Tavari Johnson Tavari Johnson 6'0" | PG Lyons Township | 2022 State #171 Nation IL (Lyons – 2022)
Last Year’s Rank: NR
Johnson is another unknown name to the causal high school basketball follower who is primed to breakout. Ball screen savant that understands how to read them passing, driving, and pulling up. Playmaker with the rock in his hands that also has electric speed in the open floor.
