All three of these players are legit D-1 sleepers. The camp's top underclassman was 6-3 junior Isaiah Johnson of 2013 state champion, Richmond Madison Central (KY).

King, GA); & 6-8 junior Jared Roberts (Evansville Memorial, IN). In the junior high division, keep your eyes on the following youngsters: 5-11 frosh Jordan Wright (Pikeville Shelby Valley, KY); 5-8 frosh Sam Norton (Mooresville Christian, IN); and 6-6 freshman Tyler Games (Michigan City, IN). 5-6 freshman Jaronte Boyd (Michigan City, IN) will be a good one with growth at the point guard slot.
