Top Forwards in the Class of 2017
Joshua J. Grine

We continue releasing our Top Prospects Report listing the top players in each classification and position.

Already Released: Top Forwards in 2018

Top 5 Forwards

#1. Brenden Boatwright 2017 6'7 F Carlsbad HS (Carlsbad, NM)

Boatwright is being considered as one of the top overall players in the state of New Mexico and is likely the most Division One prospect in the state. Boatwright has the body type, footwork and has a nice looking jumper.

#2. David Cormier 2017 6'2 F Volcano Vista HS (Albuquerque, NM)

Cormier goes under the radar right now in Albuquerque as we have yet to get stats and also the Hawks are under preforming to most standards. However, Cormier is a talent and athlete through and through. He's one to keep an eye on this season. Cormier recently received an offer for football from the University of New Mexico.

#3. Chris Johnson 2017 6'5 F Carlsbad HS (Carlsbad, NM)

Chris Johnson is a talented big man that does his work in the paint. He is dominates on the glass and gets plenty of second chance points. His talent is his knack for rebounding and getting position in the paint.

#4. Adam Cook 2017 6'4 F Cleveland HS (Rio Rancho, NM)

Cook is another football prospect who dominates in the paint. Cook however does have a quality basketball athleticism but on the list if you need a strong post that will go toe to toe with any player he will be my go to guy. Can finish well with contact.

#5 Jeremie Karngbaye 2017 F Portales HS (Portales, NM)

Karngbaye at 6'5 is a solid post player and hands down, regardless of classification one of the best post players in the state of New Mexico. Boards well, among the best, and commands the paint.

Best of the Rest

Dakota Yancey 2017 F 6'7 Rio Grande HS (Albuquerque, NM)
Cael Apodaca 2017 F Highland HS (Albuquerque, NM)
Isaiah Brooks 2017 F Capital HS (Santa Fe, NM)


Grine on the List: Several players in the "Best of the Rest" could see their stock rise now in January leading up to the state tournament as we get a better eye on them. We could shuffle the list this season and will be an interesting position and class to watch
