2024 Rankings Update: Class A New Additions

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>More new names from Class A before the final 2024s are produced. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2398568' first='Austin' last='Ahrendt'] of Nevis (6'2, sg). A slashing scorer that has often been the Nevis leading scorer, but Austin is really about that defensive end. One of the better defenders I saw in Class A this season. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2398578' first='Andrew' last='Bueckers'] of Pine River-Backus (6'4 sf). Bueckers is a longer face-up player that did a lot around the basket for his team but he is a good handler at his size that went at the bigger players that were forced to guard him. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1874869' first='Jacob' last='Dixon'] of East Central (6'6, big). Dixon is one of the stronger bigs in class A hoops and likely in the state. Plus he runs well, gets of the floor well, averages a double-double easily, and his coaches love him as a leader. Dixon is another low post Class A big that is worth looking into. Note: I later noticed I had Dixon ranked previously but felt that after writing this, I wanted to keep it to say it anyway. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2378342' first='Bryce' last='Hoekman'] of Murray County Central (6'9 big). Bryce might be one of the most interesting finds this year. He is 6'9, 200 pounds and has a good looking touch facing up. A multi-time all league player that is really long and has a frame that could be molded into a nice prospect. Keep an eye on this kid. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2398535' first='Carter' last='Olson'] of Mountain Lake Area-Comfrey (6'0 pg). The lead guard that led a team into the top five spots in state this year, Olson is that all state level guard that defended, handled the ball, and knocked out jumpers at a quality rate. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2398530' first='Kyler' last='Pickle'] of ACGC (6'1, sg). When it comes to triple double guys in the backcourt, that is Kyler. He is a 25/9/8 guy nearly on average. Many sport athlete that was multi-year all conference. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2398566' first='Isaac' last='Simonson'] of Red Rock Central (6'5, pf). Simonson is strong and rebounding constant. Top scorer for his team but more so is his defensive control with help defense in the post, his low post d, shot blocking and defensive rebounding. One of the best rebounders in the state in both numbers and effort. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2398542' first='Jordan' last='Warne'] of MACCRAY (6'6, pf). Jordan has good size as a four man and a touch that has to be respected. Moves pretty well and a good shot blocker. There is potential here in this developing four man. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
