<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The North Dakota 2024 Rankings update came out on Monday morning. Tonight, we are talking Stock Risers!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"small"} --> <p class="has-small-font-size">A “Stock Riser” typically refers to a situation where the value/ranking of a player increases significantly over a short period, causing a player's ranking to rise. It is a term often used in financial markets to describe stocks that experience substantial gains. In this case, we are talking about basketball players! The increase in stock is due to various factors such as exceptional play, an impressive post-season run, increased production, positive reports from scouts/coaches, and an optimistic future.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>See below for info on <span style="text-decoration: underline">11 players</span> who moved up the Ranks...</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":1904167,"width":"422px","height":"auto","sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"media"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large is-resized"><a href="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2022/04/NE24StockRisers-crop-640x420-1654136808-crop-611x401-1661348079-crop-610x400-1681167435.jpg"><img src="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2022/04/NE24StockRisers-crop-640x420-1654136808-crop-611x401-1661348079-crop-610x400-1681167435.jpg?w=609" alt="" class="wp-image-1904167" style="width:422px;height:auto" /></a></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1145107"],"_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":"-15-7 record, lost in Regionalsrnrn-20.4 ppg, 5 rpg, 3.3 apg, 1.6 spg, 41 FG%, 76 FT%rnrn-Nobody works harder than Landon, gym rat who really improved his gave in the past year, real-deal sharpshooterrnrn-Efficient with the ball this season, deadly from long range with a quick release, also tough/disruptive on defense","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_1_player":["1144977"],"_player_evaluations_1_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_1_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_1_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"-19-4 record, won State Qualifier/Challenge Game, State Tourney this weekrnrn-21.9 ppg, 8.1 rpg, 3.0 apg, 2.8 spgrnrn-Always gets the opposing teams top D u0026amp; he still produces, scores the rock from all 3 levels u0026amp; he does it efficientlyrnrn-Very good on D, defends on the wing u0026amp; in the post, has a sweet lefty shooting stroke, has an impressive finishing package","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_2_player":["1164105"],"_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":"-20-7 record, State Championrnrn-5.2 ppg, 3 rpg, .9 apg, 31 3FG%,rnrn-You can't teach his size!
