5 Impressive 2027 New Hampshire Prospects

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The state of New Hampshire overall has a great group of talented prospects in the class of 2027. Today, I will be highlighting five names that have impressed me in their freshman year! Let's get started!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2470876"],"_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":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-665763c261bd2"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='2470876' first='Salim' last='Diaby'] is a long and athletic forward with tons of future potential in store. His best attribute that he brings to the table right now is his defensive instincts. Diaby has long arms and uses his length to his advantage by getting vertical and impacting drives. He swats the ball effectively with good timing and therefore, racks up block numbers. Diaby's athleticism translates outside the paint as well as he has upside defending on the ball. On the offensive end, he is at his best attacking the paint and finishing the ball with that length of his. Diaby has some nice post moves that he brings out occasionally, with still some more room to grow. He has the right mix of tools and talent, which could make him a very sought-after prospect with further development.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2386779"],"_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":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-665763c261c9b"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='2386779' first='Thiep' last='Kuany'] is a strong-built combo guard who loves to drive and finish at the rim. Nimble and well-balanced, he can spin through defenders and he uses a soft touch that keeps his efficiency up. Kuany tends to draw fouls and collects a ton of easy points and the free throw line. A smooth and confident ball-handler, he can make nice reads on his drives by finding cutters and open teammates. Kuany's jump shot can be slow and too measured, but the form is repeatable and should improve with time. Defensively, he has the body to be a real menace on the ball and has already shown weakside rim protection flashes. Kuany has a lot of skills that make him carry a high ceiling and one to monitor going forward.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2470901"],"_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":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-665763c261d51"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='2470901' first='Daniel' last='Karavanic'] is a tough and gritty forward who always gives one hundred percent on both ends. In the paint, he is an aggressive blocker and has great timing on his deflections. Karavanic is a hound on the boards, bringing down offensive and defensive rebounds through sheer effort and want. He will body up opponents and will put his arms up in a stance. On the offensive end, Karavanic can create his own shot in the post by using the mid-range to his advantage with fadeaways. He can also stretch the floor and knock down perimeter shots to boot. Karavanic's defensive intensity and hustle stand out with flying colors and should be a huge breakout candidate in the coming years.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2560962"],"_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":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-665763c261e41"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='2560962' first='Emmanuel' last='Malok'] is a tall and athletically built center with lots of upside. Defensively, he's got great footwork when guarding on the perimeter and can stay in front of smaller players like guards better than most at his position. Malok's long arms make him hard to score against, as he can swat the ball into the stands and create havoc. On offense, he is effective as the roll man and can slam the ball home for easy points. Malok uses the glass well when given the ball in the post and does the simple stuff with precision and patience. If a jumper develops in the future, he becomes a seriously intriguing prospect that programs will fight over more than he already is at this point right now.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2633458"],"_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":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-665763c261f31"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='2633458' first='Shane' last='Lemire'] is a point guard who can shoot it from beyond the arch. With a smooth shot and compact mechanics, he can get hot fast and become a pressing threat for opponents to deal with. Lemire has great relocation ability, and often finds openings deliberately to get good looks for himself. Because of his excellent form, he can shoot the ball with confidence from deep, which forces defenses to defend higher up than they would prefer. Defensively, Lemire is a pesky on-ball defender who will steal the ball with quick hands and good instincts. He also has shown flashes of anticipating skills which also help him intercept passes. Lemire's mix of shooting and defense gives him a great baseline to work with, and he is primed for a bigger role next year.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
