Jackson Bowman Jackson Bowman 6'7" | PF Cedar Rapids Kennedy | 2022 State IA | Cedar Rapids Kennedy | 6’7 F
Bowman has a real nice frame to go along with his game. Standing at 6’7 his height already gives him a nice advantage. He’s got a real strong upper body allowing him to finish through contact at the rim. He is a consistent rebounder and was coming down with boards often on Saturday.
Keaton Flaherty Keaton Flaherty 6'4" | SG Oskaloosa | 2022 State IA | Oskaloosa Senior | 6’4 F
Flaherty is a bit of a smaller big but that doesn’t stop him. He was constantly finishing at the rim on bigger guys on Saturday. He is very athletic and was able to elevate well under the basket. He was able to knock down the three ball a few times as well. He hustles after rebounds and had a couple nice put backs this past weekend.
Cameron Fens Cameron Fens 7'0" | C Hempstead | 2022 State IA | Dubuque Hempstead | 6’11 C
Fens was quite possibly the tallest kid in the gym this past weekend. Standing at six feet eleven inches he was dunking everything under the rim. With a post entry he was able to perform a quick drop step and go up for a two hand slam. He has a huge presence inside and his mobility down low was exceptional. He rebounded well on both ends of the floor. Teams are going to have a hard time defending him down low this upcoming season.
Craigeory Mills | Kennedy | 6’6 F
Standing at 6’6 Mills wasn’t the tallest down low but he still executed some nice finishes on some bigs. He has a nice drop step and a real nice spin move in his arsenal. He has great touch around the rim with his finishes. Defensively, he played some great help side and caused defenders to kick out when they drove in.
Trey Kriener Trey Kriener 6'7" | C South Winneshiek | 2022 State IA | South Winn | 6’8 F
Kriener is a very mobile big. He was able to obtain positioning on the block and get some looks down low. Very good footwork for a kid his size and exceptional lateral quickness. I would even consider Kriener to be a stretch four as he spent a lot of time out on the three and knocked down some threes from deep. All in all a very versatile big with a deep scoring arsenal.
