We are going to complete a series of preview coverage of the different position groups that will be represented down in Alabama from Missouri and Kansas.
Jevon Porter Jevon Porter 6'11" | SF Tolton Catholic | 2022 State #110 Nation MO , 6’11, Tolton Catholic, Michael Porter Junior Elite (pictured): A big time front court prospect who comes from a a great family lineage of hoopers. Has tremendous hands, finishing ability, athleticism is off the charts, and has a tremendous motor. A double double machine each time he steps on the floor.
Omar Henry, 6’7, Link Year, Michael Porter JR Elite (Wing/Forward Hybrid): Massively strong frame and athletic monster especially in transition. Can lead the break or run the wings and finish with authority in a variety of ways. Can play and guard a variety of positions on the basketball floor. Finishes with either hand and through on contact on drives.
Connor Owens, 6’6, Springfield Kickapoo, DC Kings Missouri: Great explosion off the floor with hands to catch and finish efficiently in post ups and dump downs. Does a little bit of everything on the basketball court, and is a good anchor on defensive.
Antwaun Massey Antwaun Massey 6'8" | PF Minnesota Prep | 2022 #249 Nation MN , 6’8, Minnesota Prep, KC Spurs Black: An electric forward prospect who’s game continues to refine and come full circle. Knocking down open jumpers at a higher clip and tightening up the handles over the spring and summer to pair with his off the charts explosiveness and athleticism will make him a must watch this weekend.
Kortez Stevenson Kortez Stevenson 6'7" | PF Center | 2022 State MO , 6’7, Center, KC Spurs Black: Also known for his football prowess, Stevenson is a big bodied, strong, and mobile forward prospect that is a bruiser inside and draws a ton of contact while finishing inside. Capable of rebounding and pushing to lead a break as well, but in the post up game he can play with his back to the basket, or off a quick rip off a face up.
Fred Criqui Fred Criqui 6'7" | C St. Marys | 2022 State KS , 6’7, St Mary’s High School, SSA Elite 2022 Black: Solid and improving forward/center who has a smooth 15 foot jumper out of the high post or off the baseline. Criqui has a nice jump hook and counter move as well in the post up game. Improving as a rim runner and coring off dives to the basket. Had a big end to the spring and June sessions.
