Oliver
Gilliam
A 6’8″ stretch four with a high-release jumper, guard-level handle, and polished footwork — still growing, projected to 6’10″–7’0″. Scores at all three levels, spaces the floor, and creates mismatches at the 3 and 4.
Competitive. Determined. Relentless.
Oliver Gilliam is a highly skilled 6’8″ forward — a stretch four with a high release, guard-level ball skills, and polished footwork — a European-style game that’s fluid, intelligent, and complete. A natural scorer who does it all: scores at all three levels, rebounds, defends, and facilitates. At 6’8″ he plays the 3 and the 4, pulling bigger defenders away from the rim and creating mismatches every time he steps on the floor, and with growth plates still open he’s projected to reach 6’10″–7’0″.
He plays varsity at Salem High School and club ball with Dream 34 Hoops, carries a 3.5 GPA, and leads with character first.
