[stay_strong]

He's a 2016 kid but I think Caleb Taylor from south laruel Is better than all that has been mentioned. And I really do like keitas game.

Because I think people find this interesting, please list the heights for all players mentioned.

I am of the opinion that to be a "big man" at the next level you have to be 6'8 or taller.

 

A high school big man in KY can be as small as 6'2.

 

Players 6'8 and over by class:

 

2016:

Matt Wilson - Campbell Co.

Caleb Taylor - South Laurel

Colton Elkins - Boyle County

 

2017:

Chris Vogt - Graves County

Bryson Asher - North Laurel

Trace Young - Apollo (plays the wing)

 

2018:

Jake Walters - Cov Cath

Bayley Rice - North Laurel

Dalton Perkins - Mason County

 

I used the PrepHoopsKentucky database to find these. That list could be missing some kids.
