<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Here are five of the biggest stock-risers from this update to the 2025 rankings. These players have shown that they are not only leaders on their teams but players who can fit specific roles for college squads. Here are some names to watch next season who should continue to trend upward.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2375362"],"_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-66687bb6289ba"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Armendariz is a quick, attacking guard who can create a lot of action for his team. He has plenty of go-to moves off the bounce and consistently dives into the lane, is shifty enough to shake defenders in tight spaces, and has the jumper to pull right over defenders outside. He plays tough on both ends and looks poised for a big season in the winter.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1984495"],"_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-66687bb628a15"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Bhalod put up some big numbers last season, averaging a double-double and showing some good touch and work-rate from the forward spot. He's got the quick second jump to stay with the play, has good touch with varying releases around the paint, and can work with his back to the basket or off the dribble.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1631542"],"_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-66687bb628a57"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Morrissette has continued to rise the rankings with his solid play in the frontcourt. He doesn't try to do too much, fills his role exceptionally well, and was an anchor inside for one of the top teams in the 2A a season ago. He's strong with the ball, holds his position well, and is pretty mobile for his size. Look for Morrissette to have another big season in 2024-25.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1637595"],"_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-66687bb628a92"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Hyppa was a big riser toward the end of last season and has kept right on going through spring. He is an athletic guard who continues to show more and more diversity on the offensive end; pairing a nice long-range stroke with some creativity off the bounce and at the rim. He could take a big leap forward with Sumner this winter and is a rising name to watch in the 2025 class.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1984500"],"_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-66687bb628acc"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Bentley rises the rankings because of his versatility and length. He can hit the outside shot, find space around the paint for quick finishes, and does a great job working off the ball to make plays. Whether it's help side blocks, big rebounds, or relocating off the ball for open shots, Bentley has been a key player for a Grandview team looking to make another deep run in the 2A this coming season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->

Here are five of the biggest stock-risers from this update to the 2025 rankings. These players have shown that they are not only leaders on their teams but players who can fit specific roles for college squads. Here are some names to watch next season who should continue to trend upward.
