Take a look at our 2025 Illinois Wing Stock Risers!
Sean Reynolds Sean Reynolds 6'1" | SG Dekalb | 2025 State IL (Dekalb)
Previous Ranking: #43
Current Ranking: #21
Reynolds is a flame thrower from beyond the three point arc. A bit undersized at the two guard spot, but he can really knock down threes in bunches which he did with his high school team throughout June. Great moving without the ball to get open and is very quick transitioning from catch to shot.
Donte Montgomery Donte Montgomery 6'2" | SG Oak Lawn | 2025 State IL (Oak Lawn)
Previous Ranking: #72
Current Ranking: #22
Montgomery is a smooth two guard who was outstanding all spring and summer. Proved to be an electric athlete with his wiry frame and quick twitched abilities. On the regular would put up 20+ games like it was nothing. Three level scorer that it doesn’t matter the environment he is in has been productive. Really earned a massive 50 spot leap from the January update.
Jax Abalos Jax Abalos 6'8" | SF Batavia | 2025 State IL (Batavia)
Previous Ranking: NR
Current Ranking: #23
Montgomery’s travel teammate with M14 Adidas Gold was on fire especially in the spring and heading into the summer really making a name for himself. The lefty has plus size that could allow him to play some four in college. Can really shoot it from three being a plus floor stretcher with the ability to knock down threes off the catch at a high rate along with stepping in one or two dribbles for mid-range shots.
Zion Gross Zion Gross 6'5" | SG Joliet West | 2025 State IL (Joliet West)
Previous Ranking: #87
Current Ranking: #27
Gross is an elite athlete that uses it in a variety of ways. Fluid athlete that is a monster in transition as a finisher. He also really showed growth as a shooter and improved defender which opened our eyes to his upside as a potential three and D guy down the road. Big jump for the new Joliet West wing.
Arden Eaves Arden Eaves 6'5" | SF Thornwood | 2025 State IL (Thornwood)
Previous Ranking: NR
Current Ranking: #44
Eaves is a new name that popped up with his play in the spring and summer. Great size and strength on the perimeter. Like him as a wing defender that should be able to mature into a quality three point shooter over the rest of his high school career.
