Standout players
Isaiah Austin2012, C, 6-foot-11, 200 pounds
He has extraordinary length and remarkable perimeter skills, but his approach (too perimeter oriented) needs refining. One renowned scout compared him to former high school prodigy Jonathan Bender and I tend to agree. Austin can handle it well in the open court and he can toss in the 3-point shot as well, but in the paint area his fundamentals and footwork need work. With his wingspan and touch he could be a deadly scorer, but his footwork (lacks feel) and fundamentals (needs to bend knees and play big) need polish. Grant Jerrett (La Verne, Calif./Lutheran)
2012, PF, 6-8, 215 pounds
He doesn't have the perimeter-oriented offensive repertoire of Austin, but Jerrett's interior game (footwork and savviness) are infinitely better than his classmate. Jerrett has a smooth stroke out to the stripe and he can score in a variety of ways in the paint area. With added strength and development he should be a McDonald's All-American.Jahii Carson (Mesa, Ariz./Mesa)
