Here’s the Super Six of the 2026 class:
Point Guard, #9 Overall:
An integral piece of Piper’s state tournament run, Jackson is a big guard who can get where he wants on the court. He can do some of everything, including hit from deep, deliver slick passes, bully opponents off the bounce, defend and rebound. He plays with a ton of maturity and isn’t bothered by the bright lights.
Combo Guard, #4 Overall:
One of the more impressive guards from a physical standpoint, Myovela is a big, powerful athlete. He plays smooth and under control. He loves to deliver highlight passes. He’s nearly unstoppable in transition. He’s carried a big load from day one as Maize tries to rebuild.
Highlights
Shooting Guard, #13 Overall:
Bonner is a scorer. He can get to the goal, create space for his jumper, drop soft floaters and, of course, he is really good from deep. Bonner is one of the most effective playmakers and creators of offense in this class. He attacks with a tenaciousness and never backs down from a challenge.
Highlights
Small Forward, #26 Overall:
McGibboney is a tough, gritty team-first guy. He moved to Blue Valley Northwest and accepted the role of defender, rebounder and glue guy for a super-talented team. It will be interesting to see if his role evolves next year. But you have to appreciate his effort, toughness and unselfishness.
Highlights
Power Forward, #2 Overall:
A rising star who is getting a ton of attention as a football prospect, Premer helped get Great Bend to state for the first time in a while. He is a standout athlete for his size, able to run, jump and maneuver with grace and power. If he stays devoted to basketball, he is going to be one of the best in the state for the next two years.
Highlights
Center, #1 Overall:
Taylor made an enormous leap from his freshman to sophomore years. There’s no reason not to think he will continue to develop his game. He’s got good coordination, light feet and good hands for a kid of his stature. He was a difference maker for a great team this year, and he will probably just take on a bigger and bigger role with each season. If he continues to work and grow in comfort with his size, he will be something special.
