Continue ReadingSpring AAU is almost over already and the rising Senior class has had a few players who have really boosted their stock this spring so far. Here’s a look at a few who have shined.
Kam Jones Kam Jones 6'1" | CG Central | 2022 State KY , Central – Central finished the season at 6-10 and Jones had averaged a modest 10 points per game but since AAU started, Jones has consistently been scoring the ball as well as making 3s at a high rate. A solid ball handler, Kam has looked good all spring with his Louisville Storm group as they have been very solid. Kam should have a big Senior season on tap for the Jackets.
Kai Simpson Kai Simpson 6'3" | PG Frederick Douglass | 2023 State KY , Frederick Douglass – Often the third scoring option for a very good Douglass team last season, Simpson looks prepared to take over as the main option for the Broncos this season. He’s been filling up the scoring column with Cave Gym Elite all spring long and looks to be in position to inherit the lion’s share of the shots next season.
Kennedy Hayden Kennedy Hayden 6'3" | CG Ballard | 2022 State KY , Ballard – Keno has been one of the top players for Manimal Elite Gold this spring and could be in the mix for a top 15 or so ranking when they’re updated next month. A big guard who can shoot or finish around the rim, Hayden has gotten bigger and stronger over the past year and has started to show the upside of a D1 guard.
Sam Powell Sam Powell 6'7" | PF Oldham County | 2022 State KY , Oldham County – Powell was offered by Campbellsville-Harrodsburg yesterday and is proving himself to be a player that scholarship level programs should target moving forward. Sam is a good shooter with size at 6’7 and has shown some defensive ability despite not being a great rim protector. If he improves as an out of area rebounder, his stock will only keep going up.
