Legit 7 Footer Thon Maker is the #1 player in 2016

Thon Maker is one of the most unique basketball players in the country. He is the #1 8th grade prospect in the world, but that’s not what makes him special. Maker is a legit 7 footer with an advanced skill set and amazing coordination. Maker wowed at the 2011 John Lucas Midwest Invitational Camp with his post moves and overall skills. Many players are more prospect than player at this age, especially big men. Maker’s coordination alone sets him apart from most players his size. Add an ever improving skill set, a will to learn, and a motor that doesn’t stop and you’ve got a very special player.
