Shot creators can be a luxury because of their scoring ability and ability to help the team overall. Here are my top shot creators for the 2026 class.
Rosa is a do-it-all type of player on the court. He doesn’t have any noticeable flaws to his offensive game so far and looks to continue and add more to his game the better he gets. Rosa will look to score at will especially when taking defenders off the dribble with his crafty handles. He can hit the pull-up three-point shot in transition with ease. His ability to finish through contact at the rim makes him a complete offensive player.
Highlights
Derkack is another player that can seemingly do it all on the court. He can take over an entire offense and get any shot he wants. Derkack has a variety of moves he can go to when looking to score in different ways. He likes to play in transition and under control making the correct plays. Derkack has an effective euro-step he likes to use when driving to the rim. His ability to hit the stepback or pull-up shot once he breaks you down off the dribble show just how talented of a scorer he is. He will also hit the occasional three-pointer if left open.
Galasso has a quick high release point on his jump shot. He has unlimited range and must be guarded the second he touches the ball. Galasso is always moving either with or without the ball. He can use his shifty handles to create good separation for open shots. You also won’t see Galasso taking any out-of-character shots either. Galasso will look to take advantage of mismatches between him and his teammates.
Edgecomb is a lefty that will look to take and make any shot he gets. His smooth high-arcing shot needs very little space to get off. He can create that space with his handles and his ability to create on his own. Edgecomb likes to dribble around screens for open threes or look to hit the diving screener. He can get into the lane and finish strong through contact with both hands. Edgecomb can even hit the catch-and-shoot three when coming off of off-ball screens.
Jones is a smart player with great basketball IQ to his game. He doesn’t force shots and is a straight sniper from downtown hitting every three that leaves his hands it feels like. Contests do very little to his shot as you have to block him if you wanna stop Jones from making the shot. His range is well beyond the three-point line. Jones’s tight handles allow him to get any shot he wants.
