Trevor Polite Trevor Polite 6'6" | SF Homestead | 2025 State WI — SF — Homestead
I have been a huge fan of Polite’s game for over a year now. Each time I see the small forward play, he impresses. At the college level, I could see Polite developing into a versatile two-way prospect. Because of his positional size and athleticism, the SF can guard multiple positions well. On the offensive end, the Homestead prospect is improving rapidly as a jump shooter and has always been dangerous as a slasher. If I were a college coach, I would have my eyes on Polite this summer.
Latrevion Fenderson Latrevion Fenderson 6'4" | SF The Prairie School | 2025 State WI — SG — The Prairie School
Fenderson had a huge season this past winter for The Praire School. The shooting guard put up huge scoring numbers while helping his team to many major victories. As a slasher, Fenderson is very tough to stop. In isolation, the SG has plenty of moves that reliably lead to buckets. Around the rim, Fenderson is also a great finisher. Even amongst taller defenders, The Prairie School prospect typically finds a way to get the ball in the hoop.
Agape Keys Jr. Agape Keys Jr. 6'2" | CG Milwaukee Academy Of Science | 2025 State WI — CG — Milwaukee Academy of Science
I saw flashes of greatness from Keys this past winter while playing for Milwaukee Academy of Science. I really value the combo guard’s ability to impact the game in multiple ways. He is capable of contributing as a scorer, locking down opposing perimeter players on defense, and also is sneaky good as a passer. Keys’ versatility should make him an intriguing prospect to watch this summer.
Gavin Gores Gavin Gores 6'10" | PF Cumberland | 2025 State WI — PF — Cumberland
Even though he made a huge jump in the most recent rankings update, I still feel that Gores doesn’t get his due. The 6-foot-8 power forward out of Cumberland is really good. Mobile and athletic PF’s are hard to find. This is why Gores could become so valuable at the college level. He excels on the perimeter but also in the paint. I really look forward to seeing new elements of Gores’ game this summer.
Aiden Hawkinson Aiden Hawkinson 6'2" | CG Waupun | 2025 State WI — CG — Waupun
I was able to watch Hawkinson play a couple of times during the spring evaluation period. And even though I only saw him play briefly, I left impressed by Hawkinson’s progression. I thought that Waupun combo guard made several high-IQ plays. Hawkinson just has a really excellent feel for the game. He passes well and also is capable of scoring in many different ways. I am expecting Hawkinson to continue his high level of play this summer.
Carter Wollan Carter Wollan 6'3" | SG Amery | 2025 State WI — SG — Amery
Wollan was one of the most prolific scorers in the state as a sophomore. He scored over 25 points per game on efficient shooting numbers. Wollan is the type of prospect who opposing defenders can’t ever lose track of. If he gets loose, the shooting guard will shred defenses from beyond the arc. At the college level, Wollan could develop into a three-point sniper.
Jackson Accuardi Jackson Accuardi 6'6" | SF Deforest | 2025 State WI — SF — Deforest
I really, really like what Accuardi brings to the table. The Deforest small forward can do a little bit of everything. On the perimeter, he can drain outside shots or put the ball on the deck and get to the hoop. He is also more than capable of scoring in isolation on the block. Accuardi also has proven himself to be a versatile defender. He uses his quick feet and hands to stay in front of ball handlers and create steals.
