Amarion Ficklen Amarion Ficklen 6'1" | CG Adrian | 2023 State MI
It’s easy to tell that Ficklen is a multi sport star when you watch him play basketball. He has tremendous start-stop speed and lateral quickness. Ficklen’s athletic abilities make him a really tough stop.
Kenoly Jones Kenoly Jones 5'10" | PG Stevenson | 2022 State MI
In my opinion, Jones made one of the biggest statements at Flight Hankamp. He was fast and smooth in his movement on the basketball court. Jones chased down loose balls and rebounds with reckless abandon. He made athletic plays on defense, creating turnovers and going up high to challenge shots.
Grant Stockford Grant Stockford 6'2" | SF Clinton | 2023 State MI
Stockford is another multi sport star and is VERY underrated as an all around athlete. He’s a much improved player that is still learning how to utilize that athleticism. Stockford showed as what he’s capable of when he quickly closed out on a shooter, rose up, and blocked what appeared to be a wide open jumper.
Tyran Thomas Tyran Thomas 6'4" | SG Northview | 2023 State MI
At Flight Hankamp, Thomas showed why he’s considered one of the best pure athletes in the state in his class. He was incredibly bouncy under the rim at the event, helping him get handfuls of put back buckets. Thomas was impressive and high percentage as a finisher. He had some statement finishes including a 2 handed dunk in traffic.
Terrell White
White is an intriguing prospect that made good use of Flight Hankamp. He was a tough and athletic finisher at the rim that showed solid body control. A great example of this came on a scooping finish for 2.
Brent Wiles
Wiles is an even more impressive athlete in person. He was bouncy and active under the rim on the glass. Wiles showed off an athletic scoring move over his right shoulder.
