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. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>BREAKOUT PLAYER: </strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1043749' first='Emmett' last='Lawton']</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>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.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>SURPRISE PLAYER: </strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1412884' first='Andrew' last='Rader']</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>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. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
