He attacks well of the dribble and can pull up for the perimeter jumper. He is also a strong rebounder with his size.
Rico Coleman Rico Coleman 6'4" | SG Charleston | 2023 State MO 6’3 Charleston: After starting as a freshman on a veteran Final Four team in 2020, the athletic wing took over as the team’s go-to player and leader as a sophomore.

Camden Bennett Camden Bennett 6'3" | SG St. Joe Lafayette | 2023 State MO 6’2 St Joe Lafayette: A physical shooting guard who is one of the most difficult matchup problems in the class. He started the season coming off the bench, but by the end of the season, he was the team’s go-to guy.
