<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The class of 2024 has new rankings and many changes with it. Many players caught our eyes over the spring and summer boosting their stock in the rankings. Here are part 2 of stocking boosting players from the class of 2024 in Colorado.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1318382' first='Jackson' last='Hansen'] - Ralston Valley</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1318382' first='Jackson' last='Hansen'] is a tough combo guard who put people on notice this AAU season. Jackson has made a name for himself on the offensive end of the floor due to his ability to score off of the dribble. He is a crafty scorer from all three levels and a great complimentary piece in a backcourt. Jackson is an especially potent scorer in the mid-range and close to the basket where he can make tough contested shots. Near the basket, he uses spin moves and keeps his pivot to create scoring opportunities. [player_tooltip player_id='1318382' first='Jackson' last='Hansen'] and [player_tooltip player_id='1369807' first='Tanner' last='Braketa'] will make up for an exciting backcourt duo at Ralston Valley this season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1369781' first='Gavin' last='Whitehead'] - Legend</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1369781' first='Gavin' last='Whitehead'] is a big guard who has been very impressive over the spring and summer. Gavin is a good shooter off of the catch making him a potential combo guard. He does a good job of making one or two quick moves to get downhill where he is very good at finding open teammates. Gavin does a great job of making the extra pass to get all of his teammates involved. It will be interesting to see how Gavin does with a young, guard-heavy Legend team.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1369788' first='Matthew' last='Lee'] - Accelerated</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1369788' first='Matthew' last='Lee'] is a crafty three-point specialist making a jump from 38 to 25. Matthew is a knockdown shooter on and off of the dribble. He is one of the best shooters in the class who can make tough contested jump shots. Matthew has a tight handle on the ball and can create space for defenders using his dribble. Matthew is attending Accelerated Prep I will be interested to see what type of role he carves out and how his development will come along.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1578233' first='Walker' last='Asp'] - Palmer</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1578233' first='Walker' last='Asp'] made a big leap in the rankings moving from 86 to 48. Walker is a lengthy athletic forward who has become more confident over the summer. He is a respectable shooter from three-point range and is good at attacking closeouts. Walker has become more confident around the rim even finishing some dunks through traffic. Walker is a high-upside prospect to keep an eye on.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
