<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><em>With the 2024 player's ranking update, we briefly summarize what is expected on the newest&nbsp;<a href="https://prephoops.com/texas/rankings/2024-rankings/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">top-110 prospect list</a>.</em></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong><em><strong><em>Who are the Biggest Stock Risers?</em></strong></em></strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2148347' first='Aidan' last='Richard'] made a remarkable leap in the rankings, going from unranked to 5th at the small forward position and top-35 in the overall ranking. He brings exceptional shooting skills, unwavering focus, and solid defensive prowess to the game. Richard also boasts a versatile playing style, excelling in driving to the basket, performing in the post, and consistently delivering with his impressive three-point shooting abilities.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Who are the Newcomers to the Top 25?</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1738421' first='Braden' last='Hausen'] had a stellar junior season, followed by an incredible breakout summer where he dominated the PRO16 Circuit, catching the attention of countless high-level coaches and scouts. He earned offers from over 10 Division 1 schools.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1126056' first='Tyran' last='Mason']'s work ethic was very evident in his consistent play. His stock rose during each rankings update, and again, he has climbed another 10 spots. Mason showcased a hot hand all summer, putting up impressive scoring numbers alongside highlight-reel dunks and creative shots off the dribble.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Which Watchlist Prospect Could Have a Breakout Year?</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1126046' first='Lekendrick' last='Taylor Jr.'] is a 6-foot-7 forward with versatility, mobility, agility, and athleticism. Not only can Taylor jump with the best of them, but he can also out-jump them with his effortless bounce, making him a unique prospect. It's an absolute shock to me that he has yet to become one of the most sought-after recruits in the state, particularly at the low D1 and D2 levels, but I'm almost certain that will all change this upcoming season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
