A 6-2 wing who can score from all three levels, he's coming off a sophomore season in which he averaged 14.5 points and 3.6 rebounds while shooting 49% from the field and 37% from 3. We're looking forward to getting a live look at him.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_1_player":["1256304"],"_player_evaluations_1_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_1_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_1_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"A long, lanky 6-3 wing, Bockman came off the bench to provide a major scoring spark for the Vikings as a sophomore, averaging 11.7 points and 4.8 rebounds while shooting 55% from the field and 42% from the arc. He followed up that strong sophomore season with a great summer playing with the Iowa Mavericks, showcasing his shotmaking abilities. Following the graduations of several major scorers, and the likely loss to injury of the top returning scorer, Decorah will be Bockman's team next year.","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_2_player":["1476972"],"_player_evaluations_2_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_2_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_2_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"A bouncy and physical 6-4 forward, Collins was a key role player for the Roughriders as a sophomore, averaging 4.5 points and 1.7 rebounds while shooting nearly 49% from the floor. He showed the ability to occasionally stretch out and knock down some jumpers (40% from 3 on limited attempts), and his activity level on both ends of the floor make him a valuable piece for Roosevelt.","_player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_3_player":["1171696"],"_player_evaluations_3_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_3_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_3_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"Cooley is the type of long, athletic wing prospect who dominates at the smaller-school level, and that's exactly what he's done for his first two high school seasons. He's coming off a stat-sheet stuffing year in which he averaged 20.2 points, 7.9 rebounds, 4.9 assists, 2.1 steals, and 1.9 blocks a game. His athleticism, length, and versatility make him an intriguing prospect to keep an eye on moving forward.","_player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_4_player":["1171683"],"_player_evaluations_4_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_4_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_4_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_4_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_4_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"Costello has been playing up with Pure Prep's 17U team and has more than held his own, routinely posting big scoring games throughout the summer. A long, athletic 6-3/6-4 wing who can create his own shot or move off the ball, he's the type of three-level scorer that has the ability to get scorching hot and carry a team offensively.","_player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_5_player":["1256301"],"_player_evaluations_5_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_5_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_5_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_5_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_5_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_5_evaluation":"Gorsline is an undersized forward at 6-2, but he makes up for his lack of ideal size by playing much bigger than he's listed. He's a really good athlete and a strong young man who plays with a non-stop motor. He'll take on whatever defensive task is assigned to him and he'll rebound at an extremely high level on both ends of the floor (3.3 offensive, 3.7 defensive rebounds a game as a sophomore).","_player_evaluations_5_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_6_player":["1288851"],"_player_evaluations_6_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_6_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_6_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_6_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_6_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_6_evaluation":"Krumrei transferred from Linn-Mar to Kennedy this offseason and should provide the Cougars with a long, athletic wing scorer and defender. He didn't get any varsity run with the Lions last season, but is coming off a strong summer with the Barnstormers, where he showed the ability to create his own looks as well as play without the ball in his hands.","_player_evaluations_6_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_7_player":["1476967"],"_player_evaluations_7_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_7_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_7_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_7_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_7_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_7_evaluation":"A powerful slashing wing who does a great job absorbing contact and finishing around the rim, Meton looks primed to become a contributor for the Maroons as a junior after a strong summer with the Iowa Battlers. He rebounds well on both ends and has a strong mid-range game.","_player_evaluations_7_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_8_player":["1171680"],"_player_evaluations_8_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_8_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_8_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_8_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_8_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_8_evaluation":"An athletic 6-5 wing who is a terror in transition, Moore led the Rockets in scoring as a sophomore, pouring in 16.8 points a game while shooting nearly 51% from the field. The next step in his progression will be adding a consistent jumper. We're looking forward to seeing if that has happened.","_player_evaluations_8_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_9_player":["1171695"],"_player_evaluations_9_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_9_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_9_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_9_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_9_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_9_evaluation":"Noll delivered one of the most impressive displays of the summer when he poured in 17 points in the first six minutes of Martin Brothers' game against Omaha Elite at the Kings of the Court tournament. A 6-6 scoring wing who is capable of getting scorching hot from deep, he pairs a pure stroke with a quick release and a rapidly improving confidence in the ability to create his own shot. He's oozing with potential.","_player_evaluations_9_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_10_player":["1426164"],"_player_evaluations_10_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_10_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_10_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_10_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_10_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_10_evaluation":"A long wing who had some big moments off the bench for North Linn in their 1A championship run, Pflughaupt will step into a much larger role this season following the graduations of three double-figure scorers. He shot it really well during the spring with Iowa Prep and also showed the ability to use his length to impact the game defensively.","_player_evaluations_10_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_11_player":["1362969"],"_player_evaluations_11_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_11_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_11_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_11_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_11_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_11_evaluation":"A knockdown shooter with unlimited range, Tigges moves off the ball really well and has a quick release off the catch. He has become more comfortable as a ball-handler and shot creator and should get a ton of open looks playing alongside [player_tooltip player_id='956868' first='Pryce' last='Sandfort'] and [player_tooltip player_id='956887' first='Cade' last='Kelderman'].","_player_evaluations_11_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_12_player":["1288878"],"_player_evaluations_12_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_12_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_12_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_12_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_12_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_12_evaluation":"A big wing who is filled with potential, Webb had a solid spring and summer with the Iowa Mavericks. He has gained confidence, shooting it well and moving without the ball to find open spaces in the defense. With his size (6-6/6-7), length, and shooting, he'll be someone to keep an eye on over the next 12 months to see how he continues to progress.","_player_evaluations_12_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_13_player":["1171681"],"_player_evaluations_13_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_13_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_13_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_13_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_13_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_13_evaluation":"An athletic 6-3 wing, Wilkinson helped lead the Norsemen to the 2A state tournament last season and is a key piece for what will be among the best teams in the class this year. He impacts the game on both ends of the floor, averaging 14.2 points, 6.5 rebounds, 3.4 assists, and 1.6 steals a game. He's a strong on-ball defender who can defend multiple positions. We're looking forward to seeing how his offensive game has progressed and if he has gained some more confidence in his jumper.","_player_evaluations_13_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":14,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"align":"","mode":"edit","anchor":"acf-block-677c99feb3e13"} /-->
