In our last issue, we listed our Top Six Prospects in the 2018 Class, this time around we will look at a few kids we feel will have a break-out off-season during AAU/Club Campaign where they could spring themselves into a legitimate Mid-Major status. The Spring/Summer circuit has given quite a few players in this class false hope of where they really are in terms of level of play.


RECENT TOP SIX: (1) Ayo Dosunmu (we saw him recently, he’s going to have to pick his game up to maintain his status as a touted national player). (2) Javon Freeman (3) Talen Horton Tucker (4) Kezo Brown (5) Tim Finke (6) Darius Beane. Orr’s high jumping Raekwon Drake impacts a game at both ends probably better than anyone in the class, and yes, we viewed him as a legitimate Mid-Major recruit. Top 10 in the class. Just saying!
