The Big Fish is a force around the basket with his power game around the basket along with his athleticism and mobility. He can also step out and knock down the 3-pointer. The Iowa State commit averaged 12 points and five rebounds a game in helping the Falcons to a third place finish in the Class 6 state tournament. He was also a large piece of MoKan Elite’s Nike Peach Jam championship team.

He averaged seven points and five rebounds as a junior on a loaded Staley team as he brought a high motor and big energy off the bench with his rebounding and activity. During the summer with the 816 Hoops, he displayed his perimeter game where he can make plays off the dribble. He has already committed to Indiana State.
Jordan Logan Jordan Logan 6'7" | PF Vashon | 2023 State MO (Vashon): The 6’8″ forward was one of the biggest stock risers in the state during the summer grassroots season with the Michael Porter Jr. Elite 17U squad. He’s an explosive athlete who runs the court and excels in throwing down two-handed rebound tip dunks. He also showcased a feathery shooting touch from 3-point range and improved ball handling skills. Several Division I programs began to show interest, including Florida International, who extended an offer.
Brayden Shorter Brayden Shorter 6'5" | SF Springfield Kickapoo | 2023 State MO (Kickapoo): A 6’6″ small forward who is one of the top perimeter shooters in the state. His shooting range extends well beyond the 3-point line, which can really stretch the opposing defense.

He spent the summer playing for the ShoMe Assault 17U squad.

Trevor Reed Trevor Reed 6'6" | PF John Burroughs | 2023 State MO (John Burroughs): The 6’6″ forward followed up a solid junior season with the Bombers with an excellent summer season with the Brad Beal Elite 17U team in the Nike EYBL. He can step outside and hit the pick and pop jumper and also handle the ball to make a play. His low-post game was also very potent as he displayed a variety of moves, good footwork and a nice touch inside. He is also adept at grabbing the defensive rebound and taking off on the fast break himself. As a junior, he averaged 12 points and six rebounds while shooting 57 percent from the field.
Ethan Fauss Ethan Fauss 6'7" | PF Clayton | 2023 State MO (Clayton): A 6’8″ forward who is a very skilled big who can handle the ball and shoot the 3-pointer, which makes him a matchup problem.
