Travis Perry Travis Perry 6'2" | PG Lyon County | 2024 State #115 Nation KY , Lyon County – It’s probably hard to say stock is rising when you’re the top ranked player in the class but last week’s offer from Ole Miss shows that Perry is going to be a national recruit. Now holding offers from the SEC and Big East (Creighton), the high scoring guard looks like he’s the most likely 2024 to be ranked nationally before graduation.
Damone King Damone King 6'0" | PG DeSales | 2024 State KY , DuPont Manual – King rode a wave of momentum after leading Manual to the regional finals in March and has continued to improve over the AAU season. His Louisville Magic 15u group has been up and down but Damone has been very consistent with his play over the last 6 weeks or so and looks like he’s primed to move into the top 3-5 in the class rankings when we update.
Jasper Johnson Jasper Johnson 6'5" | PG Woodford County | 2025 #15 Nation MO , Woodford County – Johnson is a volume scorer who can get in the paint and finish above the rim or knock down open 3s. Jasper is a two sport star with NFL genetics and a ton of upside in both basketball and football. He’s a growth spurt away from being one of the top prospects in the class as a whole.
Jaylan Rigdon Jaylan Rigdon 6'0" | PG Pike County Central | 2024 State KY , Pike County Central – A bad miss in our initial 2024 rankings, Rigdon had a very solid season for Pike Central and has been one of the best players for Manimal Elite all spring. A shifty guard who can get paint touches or knock down open shots, Jaylan will be among the best players in the region next season and has the look of a future scholarship level player.
