Kade Unseld Kade Unseld 6'5" | SF Warren Central | 2024 State #252 Nation KY , Warren Central – Unseld is in line for a big Sophomore season after his Freshman year was limited to 8 games. Kade had a solid spring and summer of AAU and will look to maintain that momentum as he should be a top scorer for the still young Dragons.
Drae Vasser Drae Vasser 6'1" | PG Trinity | 2024 State KY , Jeffersontown – Vasser is another wing who should see a lot bigger numbers this season. After having a huge summer, Drae should be on the short list of best Sophomores in Louisville. He could be a 15+ point per game scorer this season if he gets enough shots.
Hudson Blank Hudson Blank 6'2" | SF Dixie Heights | 2024 State KY , Dixie Heights – Dixie returns a large part of their core from last season but Blank could be the X factor for the Colonels. Hudson played a limited role as a Freshman but had a great AAU season and has grown a couple of inches in the last few months.
Jay Rose Jay Rose 6'4" | SG Madison Southern | 2024 State KY , Madison Southern – A player to watch in the 11th region this season, Rose’s move from 2023 to 2024 allows him more time to get more comfortable with the ball in his hands and could eventually become more of a combo guard. He could score close to 20 points per game this season.
Elijah Decker Elijah Decker 6'5" | SF Ohio County | 2024 State KY , Ohio County – Decker was limited to 8 games last season due to injury and will get a re-do on his Sophomore season thanks to SB 128. Decker has great positional size and is very athletic, always looking to dunk on opponents. With a healthy season. Elijah could be at the top of the list of best players in the 3rd region.
