<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The 2025 rankings update is here with nearly 130 players part of the update. With every update, there are new additions and this update is no different. Here are the top newcomers in the 2025 rankings update.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1595683' first='Alex' last='Sdek'], 6'3 SG St. Benedict's</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Sdek is the top newcomer in the 2025 rankings update and will be one to watch in the spring and summer. The 6'3 guard has a good handle, which he uses to get by his defender and finish around the basket. Sdek is more than just a slasher as he also has a nice release on his jumper and can play off the ball as well. He is an underrated passer and moves his feet on the defensive end. Sdek is a skilled guard prospect who has the ability to score the ball inside and out.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1623005' first='Malachi' last='Arrington'], 6'10 C Immaculate Conception</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Arrington had a solid 2022-23 season for the Lions and is looking to carry it over into the spring and summer. The 6'10 post is able to get position down low and is capable of drawing contact in the paint. Arrington has a nice touch around the basket and is developing his range on the offensive end. He fights for rebounds on both ends of the floor and uses his length to influence shots on defense. Arrington is just starting to scratch the surface of his potential and will be one to watch during the AAU season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1773151' first='Jaden' last='Myers'], 6'0 PG Columbia</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Myers had a breakout season for the Cougars as he paced them in scoring in 2022-23. The 6'0 guard has a quick first step, which he uses to blow by his defender off the bounce and finish at the rim. Myers can also score in the mid-range and is capable of knocking down open jumpers on the perimeter. He is an underrated rebounder and can deflections on the defensive end. Myers is a scoring lead guard prospect who should continue to put up big scoring numbers in his varsity career.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1823214' first='Shelton' last='Colwell'], 6'5 SF Columbia</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Colwell burst onto the scene for the Cougars as he emerged as their main presence in the paint. The 6'5 wing has a good face-up game as he can put the ball on the floor and finish nicely around the basket. Colwell knows how to get position down low and is unafraid of drawing contact around the basket. He skies for rebounds on both ends of the floor and uses his length to make an impact on the defensive end. Colwell is a long wing prospect who should continue to improve during the spring and summer.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1775122' first='Bryan' last='Ebeling'], 6'3 SG St. Rose</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Ebeling had a solid debut season for the Purple Roses as helped them take home the Non-Public B South title. The Italian native has a clean release on his jumper as he wastes little motion and can knock down triples in bunches. Ebeling is more than just a shooter as he can also put the ball on the floor and finish around the basket. He moves well without the ball in his hands and is an underrated defender. Ebeling's ability to stretch the floor is something that will help his stock in a big way.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2><strong>Other Prospects to Know:</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1773153' first='Reale' last='Basquine'], 6'6 SF Middle Township</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1773152' first='Nesta' last='Rice'], 5'10 PG Medford Tech</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1775123' first='Nalim' last='Parrish'], 5'11 PG Bergen Catholic</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1776778' first='Vova' last='Trotsko'], 6'5 SF Colts Neck</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1786395' first='Luke' last='Schorr'], 6'2 SG Rumson Fair-Haven</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
