Potential 2024 & 2025 Stock Risers

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Here's a handful of players that caught my eye over the summer who have clearly been putting in the work as they head into the 2023-24 season. They look ready to make up the jump up the ranks this year and are some standout players to take notice of.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1978881"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"Kariuki's looked really good this summer and should be one of the top guys for Sammamish this winter.

He's good at setting up defenders off the catch, can go either way to attack gaps, and has a pretty good handle for a 6-foot-5 guard. He puts up monster numbers for Tekoa-Rosalia and should be in store for another big season.","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_2_player":["1450956"],"_player_evaluations_2_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_2_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_2_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"West is a rangy, athletic guard who's excellent around the rim, both finishing drives and crashing the boards to get tip-ins and offensive rebounds. He's a hard worker who can fill the lanes on the break and finish through contact in the paint and get those and-ones.","_player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_3_player":["1631565"],"_player_evaluations_3_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_3_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_3_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"Metke has looked a lot better from behind the arc and stretching the floor as of late. He can walk into deep shots, has some ability to shoot off the dribble in the mid-range, and has the length to defend multiple positions defensively. He could make a big leap forward for Capital this season.","_player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_4_player":["1451035"],"_player_evaluations_4_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_4_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_4_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_4_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_4_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"If you want an aggressive guard who can lock up and give you some offense, West is your guy. He's a lefty who is tough at the rim, can shoot the three, and uses a long reach to harass ballhandlers and create turnovers. He plays with high energy and has a lot of athleticism packed in his 6-foot frame.","_player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":5,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-65419f67d4734"} /-->
