Seth Wilson has something to say about all the talk about
being #1 in the country at the class of 2021.
With an extensive resume of his own Wilson came out to play in his
backyard at the Ohio Buckeye Prep Showcase.
We haven’t seen him compete in the top national all-star events in a few
years so he had a lot to prove at this year’s event.
He started the event off by playing up in the 2020 Top 40
game where he dropped 17-points against players that were one year his senior –
and them followed that up with some impressive total as he faced off against
some of the best in the class of 2021.
We were impressed with the size and development of Wilson
and actual see him transitioning to a big lead guard and anticipate big opportunity
and huge problems at the “magic” height of 6’3 to 6’5 for him. Already one of the better scorers in the country
regardless of class - He is a "bucket-getter" as we say in the
scouting world. His ability to score at all three levels is tremendous and his
ball skills are evolving. He can snag a rebound in traffic, lead the break, and
find a way to score in some fashion.
He has an evolving triple threat game as well and is potent
off the dribble. His 1st step is fairly explosive and he can finish with either
hand at the rim. In addition, he can toss in a floater, a pull-up jump shot in
transition, and will likely be finishing with the dunk before High School. He
can shoot off the catch, but he is at his best shooting off the dribble. His
release on his shot is quick and he gets good lift on his shot as well.
We wanted to see more of Wilson in this type of environment
in the last 24-months, but like a anything exclusive Wilson make himself available
for only a limited time for viewing; he made the most of his time and will
considered for tops in class based on a solid two days Buckeye Prep Showcase
Performance which ended with Seth competing the Buckeye Prep Showcase Top 20
game. Regardless of the number that ends
up appearing by his name Seth Wilson is, has been, and will continue to be a
fixture as one of the best in the country in the class of 2021.
