TK Barnett TK Barnett 5'9" | PG Bellevue West | 2023 AL | 5’9 PG | Bellevue East 2023 – Sophomore TK Barnett TK Barnett 5'9" | PG Bellevue West | 2023 AL is a 2-year starter for Bellevue East. He led the Chieftains in points, averaging 14.2 points per-contest this past season. I was able to watch TK play during the season and he doesn’t play like any typical sophomore. TK showed poised, shows he can lead a team to a win, and with time, true leadership. Barnett maybe undersized, but he plays with heart and does it at a high-level. He can score at all 3 levels, he facilitates, and able to create plays for others. One of his best games this season came off a 55-52 win over Omaha South on the road. Barnett finished with 20 points 5 rebounds 3 assist and 2 steals, shooting 5/8 from the field.
Mark Lual Mark Lual 6'6" | SF Lincoln | 2021 NE | 6’5 SF | Parkview Christian 2021 – The transfer from Lincoln High has made his name well-known in the city of Lincoln. The 6’5 senior has help led Parkview Christian to a 25-1 record thus far and a trip to the NSAA Class D2 State Tournament. Mark is averaging 15.1 points 5.3 rebounds 2.2 steals and 2.3 blocks, shooting FG 49%, 3FG 40%. Mark is a freakish athlete with a tremendous vertical. He can play and guard all 5 positions which makes him a special player. He currently hold offers from Riverland Community College (MN) and Milwaukee Area Tech College (WI).
Jayden Curtis-Sayers | 6’1 SG | Omaha Northwest 2021 – Curtis-Sayers was one of the top unranked players in the state that easily should’ve been. Jayden was the only player for the Huskies that averaged double-digit points with 15.6 points per-game. Jayden finished his 2 year tenure at Omaha Northwest with a total of 463 points and 205 rebounds. Jayden has a stronger body that can put up big numbers and can play off and on the ball.
Evan Meyersick Evan Meyersick 6'5" | PF Millard West | 2021 State NE | 6’5 PF | Millard West 2021 – After a long season, the Wildcats will be heading to the Class A State tournament, strongly because of Evan Meyersick Evan Meyersick 6'5" | PF Millard West | 2021 State NE . The Nebraska football walk-on has brought strength, length, and his hard working skillset to the team. One of Evans best game this season came off an 60-57 win against Lincoln East. He finished with a career-high 26 points and 8 rebounds. Meyersick is looking to finish his Wildcat career as an State Champion.
