Amar Augillard Amar Augillard 6'5" | SF Zion Benton | 2021 State IL (Young & Reckless)
Augillard is one of the best uncommitted prospects in the state of Illinois and wow was he outstanding in KC. The 6’5” small forward has such a physical build and style to his game. Early on he let it fly from deep draining a pair of triples to open the game. Then he literally lived at the rim whether it was off the bounce, transition, or the offensive glass. Did whatever he wanted with his burst and ability to get downhill. Quick second jump off the floor when he did miss. Mid-majors and low-majors should be on him.
Jaiden Lee Jaiden Lee 6'4" | SG Joliet West | 2021 State IL (Young & Reckless)
Lee is a rangy two guard from Joliet West that will be playing prep ball next season in Texas. Like his potential as a multi level scorer with a smooth jumper along with using his length all over the floor whether it is on the defensive end or sneaking in for put backs.
KJ Debrick KJ Debrick 6'7" | C Springfield Lanphier | 2021 State IL (Illinois Hoopstars Gill)
Debrick continues to gain buzz among mid-major and low-major college coaches with his play this spring. Light on his feet for his size. Efficient finisher around the hoop with excellent hands and footwork. Defends very well around the hoop keeping his hands straight up altering and blocking shots.
Quinton McCullough (Illinois Hoopstars McAllister)
Strong forward with good size. He was impressive showing clean mechanics on his jump shot draining an array from deep. The combo forward also impacted the game on the defensive end with his length swatting shots including out to beyond the three point arc.
Phillip Berryhill Phillip Berryhill 6'5" | SG Curie | 2021 State IL (Chicago Demons)
This Curie small forward is really starting to come into his own post-high school career. Always has had the projectability and intriguing physical tools. Now the skill/production is starting to come around. Feathery jumper he hit from all over the floor and was silky smooth putting it on the deck for scores at the rim including a nice euro step. JUCO gem or high D3 prospect.
