This is usually the year where you some player rise up and start separating a little.
Here are 12 big stock risers after the HS/AAU season:
Gabriel Emerson Gabriel Emerson 6'6" | PF McClintock | 2024 State AZ Phhoenix Prep +46
A transfer from McClintock has a lot to like. He has a sturdy frame, good length and comes with skill. He can comfortably hit the three plus works well inside with his back to the basket. He rebounds at a good clip in his area and he may not be done growing.
Barron Silsby Barron Silsby 6'1" | PG Perry | 2024 State AZ Perry +31
A cerebral scoring lead guard can shoot it and make plays for others. He is smart off the pick and roll and can hit the three off the catch or pull. He will drive and kick it often and I am assuming he gets some burn on their stacked varsity team.
Tyler Hutton Tyler Hutton 6'5" | SF Cactus | 2024 State AZ Cactus +23 (Pictured)
A long and quickly growing wing forward. He can score it from inside and out from the three point line and post up. He uses his length and bounce to collect steals and rebound.
Noah Sowunmi Noah Sowunmi 6'4" | SF North Canyon | 2024 State AZ Paradise Valley +22
The only player ranked previously to jump into the Top-25 was Noah. His combination of size, power, ball handling, defense and athleticism has made his stock jump up. He loves getting downhill and scoring through contact.
Logan Martinez Logan Martinez 6'0" | PG Salpointe Catholic | 2024 State AZ Salpointe Catholic +20
A pure point guard with pinpoint passing skills. He is a pure team player and plays an unselfish brand of ball. He can shoot it with a nice stroke from mid to the three point line.
Santino Weimer Santino Weimer 5'10" | PG Phhoenix Prep | 2024 State AZ Phhoenix Prep +15
A pure point guard with a high feel for the game. He is undersized but he advance passes, drives and kicks and he can shoot it with range. He shows toughness and will get in the lane and finish with polished floaters.
Travis Torain Travis Torain 6'7" | SF Dream City Christian | 2024 State #173 Nation AZ Dream City Christian +13
A long fluid wing forward who can shoot it consistently from mid to the three point line. He has unusual length to play the passing lanes and collect steals. He is best off the catch but can put in the floor and drive it. He just got promoted to the Grind Session team.
Alex Burns Alex Burns 6'1" | PG Eastmark | 2024 State AZ Eastmark +12
A scoring combo guard who can catch and shoot from the three point line. He can get to the paint with hesitations and drive and kick it to shooters. He plays a cerebral brand of ball.
Jonas Cederlind Jonas Cederlind 6'1" | PG Perry | 2024 State AZ Perry +11
Another point guard with good court vision has a chance to get some quality minutes on varsity. He can burst in the lane and find a teammate or shoot it from the perimeter. He can give the Pumas another ball handler and decision maker.
Jake Miller Jake Miller 5'11" | PG Rancho Solano Preparatory | 2024 State AZ Rancho Solano Prep +10
A sharp shooting lead guard gets hot in a blink of an eye. He plays a smart brand of ball and is in motion a lot off the ball. He spots up and fires away off the catch or dribble. He also sees the court well and can make plays. He transferred over from Chaparral.
Jaylen Wollangk Jaylen Wollangk 5'11" | PG Mesquite | 2024 State AZ Mesquite +9
A physical on-ball defender is that pure point guard type who has improved his scoring ability. He can spray the ball around, get downhill and shoots it beyond the arc with more consistency.
Preston Lee Preston Lee 6'0" | PG Orange Lutheran | 2024 State CA-S Corona del Sol +9
Another physical guard is a true facilitator and a ball hawk on defense. He has a strong frame to carve out space to score in the paint and has become a more then capable three point shooter.
