Sam Lewis Sam Lewis 6'5" | SF Oak Park River Forest | 2023 State IL (OPRF)
Previous Ranking: #20
Current Ranking: #10
Lewis was outstanding all summer with both OPRF and Meanstreets 16U. The silky smooth two guard is one of the truly elite shooters in the class. He lit up the nets during the high school live periods along with an epic shooting display at The Platform in Alabama.
Richard Barron Richard Barron 6'5" | SF St. Ignatius | 2023 State IL (St. Ignatius)
Previous Ranking: #27
Current Ranking: #18
Another Meanstreets 16U wing here. Barron started off hot at the Riverside Brookfield tournament and never let up. Big and strong wing that has greatly improved his overall skill level over the last year which allows him to score from multiple levels.
Jake Fiegen Jake Fiegen 6'3" | SG New Trier | 2023 State IL (New Trier)
Previous Ranking: #34
Current Ranking: #19
The best shooter in the class. Fiegen was lights out each and every time we saw him play. He drains them off the catch, flares, curls, or pulling up. The New Trier standout did it with his high school team and Full Package including one game where he hit 13 triples for 50+ points.
Justin Page Justin Page 6'3" | SG Peoria Manuel | 2023 State IL (Peoria Manual)
Previous Ranking: NR
Current Ranking: #38
Page caught our attention with Team Rose during Prep Hoops 2k21. Combo guard that can play on or off the ball. Silky smooth scorer that can get points from multiple levels. Should be one of the better scoring guards in central Illinois this season.
David Douglas David Douglas 6'5" | SG Yorkville Christian | 2023 State IL (Yorkville Christian)
Previous Ranking: #80
Current Ranking: #52
Douglas shined with his travel team in July on multiple occasions. Slender built two guard with a silky smooth jumper that he drains from all over the floor with relative ease.
Nashawn Holmes Nashawn Holmes 6'1" | SG Corliss | 2022 State IL (Homewood Flossmoor)
Previous Ranking: NR
Current Ranking: #68
Shooting guard is a solid scorer especially creating his own shot with his jumper. Gets to his spots and rises up for buckets. Look for him to have a big year with HF this upcoming season.
Nikola Absura (Benet)
Previous Ranking: #115
Current Ranking: #82
This Benet wing can shoot it and has some bounce to his game along with toughness. Well rounded skill package that is a tremendous glue guy for any team he is on.
