Oakland County's Top Boys Prep Hoop Prospects

1          James Young (Jr)                    Troy

Best junior in the state, 6-6 and still growing, can play all five positions on the floor at the prep level, top-tier D1 recruit

2          "Jon Jon" Williams (Jr)           Southfield-Lathrup

This Chargers' dynamic backcourt recruit had a breakout sophomore season in 2011 & will follow that up with a HUGE year in 2012...can score at will and does it efficiently

3          Jodan Price                             Birmingham DCD

A wing prospect with a big upside and a "sweet as sugar" stroke from dowtown

4          Kellen McCormick                  Pontiac NDP

Shored up his game in the last 12 months to the point where he might be the most complete prepster in the county

5          Taylor Perry                            Rochester

The definition of a grinder and someone whose game just keeps improving...WMU was lucky to have corralled his commitment last summer

6          Kyle. Cooper/Matt Doneth   Novi Detroit CC

Best pair of forwards in the area

7          Damon Bozeman                    MH Madison

Most explosive returning scorer in Oakland County....can go "inside-out" with the best around

8          Corey Green                            MH Bishop Foley

The Ventures' athletic wing is Scottie Pippen no more, this winter he'll be all Michael Jordan!!!!

9          Chris Dewberry                       Southfield Christian

Pure scorer readying to light up Class D basketball this season like he has on the Class A level with Waterford Mott the past two campaigns

10        Nick Tatu                                 Clarkston

The county's best outside shooter added an aggressive move to the basket to his arsenal last season and is another in a long line of C-Town cage greats

11        Justin Barrows                         OL St. Mary's

Poised for a breakout season on the wing and in the post for the Eaglets in 2012....I expect at least 20 points, 8 boards per outing

12        Dorrell Foster                          North Farmington

Just scratched the surface of his talents this past winter as he nearly averaged a double-double.....the 6-6 Raiders wing will be one of the best players in the OAA next season
