Jake Anderson |
WG
|
6'4"
|
190
|
2009
|
Gurnee (IL) Warren Township
|
A versatile player. Anderson is a big wing
with range on his jumpshot. At the same
time, he asserts himself well to the post position and is not afraid to player
down either. He is a heady player who
makes the right pass and can dish from either the post or from the perimeter. He uses the triple threat position very well which
reminds MSH Michael Dunleavy. Very impressive player.
|
Tim Collier |
WG
|
5'11"
|
160
|
2007
|
Bloomington (IL) H.S.
|
An athletic guard that plays smart and always gives it all
he has. Collier lacks the intangibles
and fundamentals that he needs if he’d like to continue playing basketball on
the next level. He is good defensively
and always shows a good attitude. He has
proven that he wants to play the game
and will stop at nothing to do so. Showed signs of a nice 3-point jumpshot but didn't shoot it enough.
|
John Jordan |
F
|
6'3"
|
230
|
2008
|
Springfield (IL) H.S.
|
A wide framed forward that takes up a lot of space. Jordan has an unorthodox yet
effective midrange jumper and can also step back and knock down the three
ball. Though he must improve his
quickness, he tries to make up for it with his physical strength. John is aggressive and isn’t afraid to pursue
perimeter opponents on defense.
|
Lee Piccinelli |
PG
|
6'1"
|

|
2008
|
Henry (IL) Senachwine
|
A smart and heady guard who is very fundamentally
sound. Lee has a good feel for the
game. He is a quality shooter with good
mechanics on his shot. In addition to
being a lights out shooter, Piccinelli is an underrated passer. He sees the floor well and makes good
decisions with the ball. He has good instincts
and lets the game come to him. A very
nice player.
|
Corbin Thomas |
F
|
6'3"
|
170
|
2009
|
South Holland (IL) Seton Academy
|
An aggressive player that is good around the basket. Because
of his lack of strength, Thomas is considered more of a combo forward. However, he is not very comfortable around
the perimeter at the current point in time.
He attacks the glass hard and always plays hard, which is a positive
sign for a player of his age.
|
Troy Walls |
WF
|
6'4"
|
170
|
2009
|
Normal (IL) Community West
|
An athletic small forward with raw skills and
potential. Walls can shoot the ball with
accuracy from beyond the arch in spurts. He is
also a good rebounder. Troy needs to become more aggressive, use his
athleticism more, and stop playing so “mechanical”. Threw down some nice dunks in the Dunk Fest
after the showcase.
