Jackson, MS (Future150) -- If you're looking for the most athletic prospect nationally in the 2018 class, the early frontrunner is Ladarius Marshall.
The 6-foot-3, 180-pound shooting guard used a big year in 2013 to catapult himself to the front of the national rankings. Currently, he sits at #5 in the country, and he could rise with his considerable gifts.
Not only is he an elite athlete, but he has excellent size and strength for a player so young. Playing with MBA Hoops during the summer, it was noticeable that Marshall was beginning to improve his skills.
While he's always had solid form on his jump shot, he is beginning to knock down perimeter jumpers with more consistency. Once his ball skills begin to develop as well, he will become a serious high major prospect.
For now, stay with Future150 as we continue to track the high-upside prospect, who is the latest star to come from Jackson, Mississippi.
