The top two teams in the latest NJCAA D1 men’s basketball rankings both have Canadian prospects on their rosters who are making strong contributions. There are plenty of additional prospects from Canada at the JC level that are being heavily recruited as well. While there are too many Canadian prospects to list, here is a look at some of the most heavily recruited players.

Vincennes, the #1 team in the country  (25-0), has been led all season by sophomore guard Mychal Mulder.  Mulder hails form Windsor, Ontario and has seen his recruitment pick up heavily during the second half of the season. He has picked up offers from Creighton and Missouri recently and is also being heavily recruited by Wichita State among others. He is averaging nearly 15 points per game and shooting 46% from the field and 46% from the three-point line. Mulder does an excellent job of rebounding the ball from the perimeter and is averaging 6.8 rpg.

Hill College is having one of their best seasons in school history and Mississauga, Ontario native, Tyrell Bellot-Green, has plenty to do with their success. Hill moved up to the #2 spot in yesterday’s NJCAA D1 Top 25 Poll with a record of 24-1. Bellot-Green is a 6’7 small forward who is one of the best shooters in junior college basketball. He is averaging 14.5 points per game while shooting 47% from the field and 51% from the three-point line. Bellot-Green is also averaging 6 rebounds per game. He has plenty of mid-major offers with some high-major interest, which will continue to pick up as the season progresses and as Hill continues to win.

The College of Southern Idaho lost their first game last week after winning 25 straight to start the season. CSI, now ranked #5 in NJCAA D1, has an extremely deep and balanced attack on the offensive end.  Canadian Ray Kasongo, a 6’10 forward, has made solid contributions so far this season and has plenty of upside. He is averaging 5 points and 4.6 rebounds per game. Many high-major programs are interested in Kasongo because of his high ceiling and the possibility of him qualifying after his freshman year. If he qualifies, he will have three years to play at the next level. He has heard from Indiana, Arizona, Texas and many others recently.

Northwest College (WY) is off to a 22-4 start and was ranked 20th in the country in yesterday’s NJCAA D1 Top 25 Poll.  One of the main reasons for their success is 6’10 sophomore forward, Chris Boucher. Boucher, a Qubec, Canada native, is one of the most skilled forwards in junior college basketball. He is extremely long and mobile and impacts the game on both ends. He is averaging 23.4 points, 11 rebounds and nearly 5 blocks per game. Boucher is third in NJCAA D1 in total blocks on the season. He has picked up heavy interest from Minnesota recently and has offers from TCU and Oklahoma State. Arizona St, Utah, Cal and many more high-major schools are recruiting Boucher as well.
