Collin Branch Collin Branch 5'8" | PG Milton | 2026 WI — Milton
In younger prospects, scouts often look for certain skills. One of the best attributes that a prospect can have is the ability to knock down outside shots. Branch certainly possesses this skill. On Sunday, the Milton guard was able to convert on some very difficult shots from beyond the arc. Because of his effective shooting stroke, Branch is a prospect that I will keep an eye on.
Grant Hardy Grant Hardy 6'3" | PG Appleton North | 2026 State WI — Appleton North
Typically, younger prospects rely on one or two skills to find success on the court. It is rare to see a freshman with a complete game. But Appleton North’s Hardy might be the exception. On Sunday, the guard was able to show off his multi-faceted game. He showed an ability to pass, score, rebound, and play solid defense.
Steven Wright Steven Wright 5'10" | PG Shorewood | 2026 WI — Shorewood High School
Wright is just so much fun to watch. The Shorewood High School point guard stands at just 5-foot-6. However, what Wright lacks in height, he makes up for with pure skill. The PG is very talented as a passer and slasher. He does an excellent job of penetrating the paint and either finishing layups or kicking the ball out to an open teammate.
Max Chan Max Chan 6'1" | SG Hortonville | 2026 WI — Hortonville
On the offensive end of the court, Chan is a dangerous weapon. The guard out of Hortonville is very dynamic as a scorer. I like what Chan was able to do when he attacked the rim and got downhill. He has a handful of flashy moves, which he is able to use to blow by opposing defenders. Chan is also a very good shooter in the mid-range. When he gets to his spots, the guard can rise up and make some difficult shots.
Mike Wilson Mike Wilson 6'2" | PG West High School | 2026 WI — West
If I had one word to describe Wilson’s game it would be smooth. Everything that the guard does is just so pure. He makes very difficult tasks look easy on the court. The guard has a pretty jumper, and is very good at scoring in the paint. I really enjoyed watching Wilson compete on Sunday and will certainly watch him play more in the future.
Quincy Mosley — West
Mosley was no-doubt one of the best prospects in attendance on Sunday. The West guard was able to make a big-time statement at the Freshman Showcase. Mosley is very dangerous with the ball in his hands. He is a true three-level scoring threat who puts a lot of pressure on opposing defenders. Mosley’s breakout moment was on Sunday. Now, look for him to get some real attention for his skills.
