PLAYER OF THE YEAR: John Kinziger John Kinziger 6'0" | CG De Pere | 2023 State #257 Nation WI

The Illinois State commit is the leading returning score in the league from last season. Kinziger averaged 21.0 ppg as a junior while also dishing out roughly four rebounds and four assists per game. A deadly sniper from 3-point range who can play on and off the ball, Kinziger can float seamlessly to being a floor general and an attacking scorer.

BREAKOUT PLAYER: Emmett Lawton Emmett Lawton 6'2" | SG Notre Dame Academy | 2023 State WI

There’s a lot of guys you can put here. Lawton is certainly well-known in the Green Bay area already, but think his numbers could still make a huge jump. The fastest-rising player in Wisconsin’s senior class during the month of July, Lawton picked up a handful of Division 2 scholarship offers. Averaging 14 points as a junior, Lawton is a prospect has the offensive firepower to go off for 30 on any given night.

SURPRISE PLAYER: Andrew Rader Andrew Rader 6'9" | PF Notre Dame Academy | 2025 State WI

Rader is one of the best post prospects in Wisconsin’s loaded 2025 class. Averaging 1.5 ppg as a freshman last season, Rader got some good work in over the course of Nike EYBL play throughout the summer. A skilled 6-foot-8 forward with mobility, athleticism, and strength, Rader has a big upside.
