Santa’s Naughty or Nice List: Part 2

Published on: 24th December, 2009

North Pole –

It’s that time of year when we take a look into the future and see what players, games and events will be “Nice” to see on our 2010 wish list!

5 Players to watch for in 2010:

Treavon Jackson/2011/6′3/WG/Westerville South – one of the toughest competitors in the state of Ohio, let alone the country, already holds an offer from Arizona State…son of Jimmy.

Geron Johnson/2010/6′4/CG/Dayton Dunbar – a sleeper in the southwest pocket of Ohio, Johnson could be the most talented prospect in the State of Ohio, as this sleeper could be Prep or Juco bound.

Trey Burke/2011/6′/PG/Columbus Northland – developing into one of the best pure points in the mid-west, held Corey Joseph of Findlay Prep to 8 points on ESPN. Will have another test when Northland plays Oak Hill Academy.

Nyles Evans/2011/6′1/G/North Canton Hoover – missed the first 4 games of action, but is one of the Top 5 guards in Ohio’s 2011 class. Could emerge as a household name by March if he stays on board.

Jakarr Sampson/2011/6′8/F/Akron SVSM- Sampson has been productive and keeps getting better in each game we have seen. The Junior Forward posted 19 points and 18 rebounds in a loss to Lakewood St. Eds.
