Averaged 23 points and 13 rebounds per game as a Sophmore

Listing Duke, Illinois, Louisville, Michigan, Michigan State, North Carolina and Ohio State.

Left handed, still growing and with a 7-foot wingspan, Roe has a very good upside. He plays hard, runs the floor well and is active and effective around the basket with his shot blocking ability and his jump hook. Ball handling and shooting skills are developing. -

Ohio’s Best Boys Basketball Players
Buckeye state boasts more talent than ever before

By Steve Helwagen

Over the course of the summer, Ohio’s best boys basketball players showed their stuff in various AAU and summer camp events from coast to coast.
These events helped Ohio’s best players earn reputations as the nation’s very best. The national rankings supplied by ScoutHoops.com are dotted with players from Ohio.

Five of the current seniors are in the national top 100, led by Dayton Dunbar’s Daequan Cook at No. 16. Even better is the Class of 2007, where seven Ohio prospects are listed among the top 50. That group is led by the North College Hill duo of O.J. Mayo and Bill Walker, ranked first and fourth nationally, respectively.

The sophomore class in Ohio also boasts two of the nation’s top 15 prospects, including Cincinnati Hughes’ Yancey Gates at No. 5.

“You would be hard pressed to go back and find three years consecutively where there is this type of talent in the state of Ohio,” said HoopScoopOnline.com Ohio editor Chris Johnson. “And there is not only talent but also some size. In that sophomore class, there are four or five really good players who are already 6-8 or taller.”

The Ohio talent quotient would be even better if Herb Pope, a 6-8 forward considered a top-10 national junior, had followed through with his stated plan to transfer to a school in Ohio. Instead, he began the new school year at his old school in Aliquippa, Pa.

With the summer camp and AAU season over, Johnson has reassessed his lists of Ohio’s top prospects and updated them. The following is a look at the top prospects in each class in Ohio high school boys basketball, as rated by Johnson.

Sophomores-To-Be (Class of 2008)

* 1. Delvon Roe, 6-8, power forward, Lakewood St. Edward – Roe averaged 17 points as a freshman and earned Special Mention All-Ohio honors. Johnson on Roe: “Coach Eric Flannery thinks he may be the best player in St. Ed’s history and that says a lot. He is 6-8 now and growing and getting stronger.”

what do you think 44820...with Mullens on board is Roe the biggest get on the board in the '08 class? Or is it someone like Gates, Goins or Buford?

Wadc...first of all, I was somewhat suprised to see him listed at the #1 prospect in the 2008 class. In my opinion, the #1 prospect is Mullens.

Secondly, I think that Gates is the second biggest get for Ohio State after Mullens.

No disrespect to Roe, but its just my opinion that Mullens and Gates have the potential to develp into very good players at the next level.

I am not sold on Roe yet, lets see his development this year.

Delvon Roe, St. Edward, F, 6-7, So.: One of the premier underclassmen in Ohio, Roe emerged as a freshman by averaging more than 16 points and more than eight rebounds. His potential is limitless.</TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE>

I saw Delvon play in the regional sem-finals against Mansfield Sr last year. Has some pretty nifty moves around the basket, but lacked an outside game. Good feet work, jumping ability, and plays good defense. Jon Avery (who now plays for a juco) got the better of him in this matchup, but I will still impressed with him, especially since he was only a freshmen.

Wouldn't be suprised if Matta waited for Gates before offering Roe. The kid has a lot of potential, lets see what he does with it this year before making any judgements on him.
