Will Garlock Will Garlock 6'11" | C Middleton | 2025 State #204 Nation WI — C — Middleton
Even though he is going to be sidelined for a decent chunk of time due to an unfortunate injury, college coaches shouldn’t forget about Garlock’s skill. The 6-foot-11 center had a great season during the winter and was ready to breakout. I believe this is just a small setback for Garlock. He will be back and better than ever when healthy.
Juan Guerrero Hernandez Juan Guerrero Hernandez 6'3" | CG Grafton | 2025 State #189 Nation WI — CG — Grafton
Guerrero Hernandez has already established himself as an elite prospect in Wisconsin but I think he has another level to get to. The Grafton combo guard is a smooth athlete who has no problem using his physical tools to dominate on both ends. Guerrero Hernandez fills the stat sheet on a nightly basis, as he scores, rebounds, and passes at an incredible level.
Tyler Haney Tyler Haney 6'1" | CG Sun Prairie | 2025 State WI — CG — Sun Prairie West
I have seen Haney do some incredible things on a basketball court during the AAU season. The Sun Prairie combo guard is a dynamic scorer who is electric with the ball in his hands. At 6-foot-1, he doesn’t have overwhelming physical traits. But he is blazing quick, is a great ball handler, and makes smart plays. I see Haney developing into a great college basketball player.
Ethan Joling Ethan Joling 6'6" | PG Hortonville | 2026 State WI — PG — Hortonville
Listed as a 6-foot-6 point guard, Joling fits an archetype that many college programs seek out. He has positional size that can’t be taught and skills that are rarely found. He had a great and productive season for Hortonville in 2023-24. While I think he still has plenty of developing to do, Joling’s potential is extremely high.
Michael Wilson Michael Wilson 6'2" | SG Madison West | 2026 State WI — SG — Madison West
Already an elite scorer at the high school level, Wilson has made a name for himself in Wisconsin. The shooting guard is truly an offensive dynamo. He passes well, gets downhill quickly, has elite finishing skills, and is also a capable shooter. Wilson is going to light up scoreboards this summer.
A.J. Bender A.J. Bender 6'4" | CG Lake Mills | 2025 State WI — CG — Lake Mills
I was really impressed with the play of Bender last season. Coming off a really solid season at Lake Mills, the combo guard now looks to boost his stock. Mills has the mold of an elite mid major guard. He is quick, skilled, and smart. Bender rebounds well for his size and also plays tough defense. I love everything about Bender’s game and look forward to watching him play in upcoming tournaments.
