2021 Prospects On The Rise

<p>Which nine seniors have raised their stock so far in the 2020-21 Wisconsin high school basketball season? </p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="830582" first="Cameron" last="Palesse"] -- Waukesha West -- PG</strong></p> <p>Palesse has proven himself as one of the most lethal scorers in the state. The 6-foot-4 point guard has an unstoppable pull-up jumper and a good shot from behind the arc. Through eight games, the PG is scoring 29.4 points per game on 55 percent shooting from the field. </p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="879986" first="Tanner" last="Resch"] -- Sussex Hamilton -- PG</strong></p> <p>When [player_tooltip player_id="544570" first="Patrick" last="Baldwin Jr."] went down with an ankle injury, Resch stepped up. In 11 games, the Hamilton point guard has scored over double figures in each contest. He is currently averaging 29 points per game, and I expect him to keep improving on those numbers. </p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="935489" first="Mason" last="Dorn"] -- Seymour -- PG</strong></p> <p>Just look at the numbers that Dorn is putting up this season. That is pretty much all you need to know. The Seymour point guard has become one of the best scorers in that state, as he is putting up 31.5 points per matchup. </p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="879993" first="Hayden" last="Doyle"] -- Brookfield Central -- SG</strong></p> <p>Doyle has been known more as a role player/glue guy. However, this season, I believe that he is proving he can be much more than just a player that makes hustle plays. The Brookfield Central shooting guard is a really good scorer who looks to become a really good player at the next level. </p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="879988" first="Preston" last="Ruedinger"] -- Lourdes Academy -- PG</strong></p> <p>If Ruedinger continues to impress and improve, I could see him developing into a star player at the next level. The Lourdes Academy point guard has been tearing up the competition in his senior season. He is scoring 24.5 points per contest, which has made many college programs very interested. </p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="935490" first="Jalen" last="Keago"] -- Oshkosh North -- SF</strong></p> <p>After the FVA lost so much talent to graduation last year, Keago has stepped up and become one of the conference’s best prospects. The 6-foot-4 small forward is scoring 22 points per contest. Whichever college program ends up with Keago will be getting an excellent prospect. </p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="880035" first="Ronald" last="Kirk"] -- Dominican -- SF</strong></p> <p>Kirk is a prospect that has been on an upward trend for quite some time. However, this season, he has really taken his overall game to another level. The Dominican standout has specifically impressed with his scoring, as he is averaging 23.6 points per game. </p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="880029" first="Tre" last="Valeriano"] -- Pius XI Cathiolic -- PG</strong></p> <p>Valeriano has quickly blossomed into one of Wisconsin’s premier scoring point guards. The Pius XI Cathiloic standout is so talented in the isolation when he has the ball in his hands. If he continues to develop other areas of his game, Valeriano will no-doubt become a superstar. </p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="879998" first="Brennan" last="Timm"] -- SJNMA -- PF </strong></p> <p>Not only is Timm a great scorer, but he is also an awesome rebounder, passer, and rim protector. The power forward can sometimes be overshadowed by his terrific teammate [player_tooltip player_id="804898" first="Brandin" last="Podziemski"], but Timm is an amazing player who is having a really good senior season. </p>
