Illinois High School Pre Season All-State Team

My All-State team has 10 players on it, yes most have 5 on 1st team, and 5 on 2nd team. I will have both put together for my All-State team:     JABARI PARKER 6'9"SENIOR SIMEON(CHICAGO)-To me he's the best high school player in the country period, makes the big play(stole ball from Sterling Brown of Proviso East in 4A State Title Game),leader, can play 5 positions and play all of them well,winner(3 consecutive 4A State Titles),defends,handles, shot out to 25 feet. Whatever school he goes to is getting a great one, I think he's going to be legendary in the game of basketball, he's already a legend in the State of Illinois. JAHLIL OKAFOR 6'10"JUNIOR WHITNEY YOUNG(CHICAGO)-Has a chance to be one of the best big men of all time to come out of Chicago, overshadowed a bit by Parker, he is probably the best player in the Class of 2014 nationally. Very advanced skills for a big man, back to the basket game, good free throw shooter, can get better as a defender. Will try and challenge Simeon this year for the big trophy. KENDRICK NUNN 6'2" SENIOR SIMEON(CHICAGO)-Illinois commit has been Pippen to Parker's Jordan for 3 years now, also looking for his 4th consecutive State Title. Good three point shooter, can slash, jump out of the gym and dunk on someone, great defender. Ball handling has improved, he can also run some point guard. Could help his team to a historic season. CLIFF ALEXANDER 6'9" JUNIOR CURIE(CHICAGO)-A monster on the interior, tries to dunk anything within miles of the rim. Always on the attack, blocks shots, rebounds, very athletic, has extended his shooting range to 15 feet. He's a Top 5 National Class of 2014 player. Has potential to surpass Okafor in the future, hopefully his teammates get him the ball this season. MALCOLM HILL 6'5"SENIOR EAST(BELLEVILLE)-Illinois commit a very good wing player, good athleticism, can shoot out to 3, handles have improved. Has to step it up defensively and gain strength but that will come. BILLY GARRETT JR 6'4"SENIOR MORGAN PARK(CHICAGO)-DePaul commit(his father is an assistant there) has learned over the past 3 years to play point guard but might be more of a combo. Passing has improved, leadership,intangibles are very high. Good three point shooter, not very athletic but good enough. Will lead a very talented team this year. KEITA BATES-DIOP 6'7" JUNIOR UNIVERSITY(NORMAL)-Has improved leaps and bounds over the last year, very athletic, can handle the ball, has range to 3 point line. Needs to rebound better on the high school level and gain strength. His upside is higher than anybody in Class of 2014. Top 30 player nationally in aforementioned class. Can he put his team over the top? Class 2A runner-up last year. KENDALL STEPHENS 6'5" SENIOR EAST(ST CHARLES)-Purdue commit is possibly the best shooter in state of Illinois. Can fill it up from 3 point range, do not leave him open. Also a very good midrange shooter, needs strength as he is very skinny. Also has to become a better defender, ball handling is above average. You need to keep a man on him at all times on the perimeter. DAVID COHN 6'2" SENIOR YORK(ELMHURST)-Colorado State commit can shoot it with range, also can jump out of the gym which surprises some people(maybe because he's white?),leader, can handle the ball pretty well and defense is above average. Will try to lead his high school team deep into the playoffs.   PAUL WHITE 6'9" JUNIOR WHITNEY YOUNG(CHICAGO)-Let's hope the light has come on for him. Very versatile can play multiple positions on the floor. Could be a big two guard at the next level, handles the ball very well, adequate three point shooter, Top 50 nationally in Class of 2014. Can dominate but has to develop that killer mentality.     I AM SURE THERE ARE SOME PLAYERS I MISSED FOR SOME FOLKS, BUT THIS STATE IS LOADED WITH TALENT. THIS IS MY RANT FOR TODAY, GOD BLESS EVERYONE!!!!!!!!!!!
