Continue ReadingThis is the first update since releasing the rankings in March. As such, besides the moving of players up or down the rankings, we also added seven new players, not counting the watch list. Here are overviews of 5 of the newly-ranked players:
#15 Zy’aire Gibson Zy’aire Gibson 6'3" | SG Aspira | 2025 State DE | 6’3 G Aspira
With an absolute clip from three, Gibson averaged over 28 points per game for Aspira. His ability to sprint into shots off-the-catch and/or pull-up from deep were the focal point of what the Wolves did offensively. As a result, the high-usage guard had the ultimate green light and they needed him to use it. Gibson scored 45 of their 65 points against Tatnall.
#18 Elisha Johnson-Dixon Elisha Johnson-Dixon 6'0" | CG Early College | 2025 State DE | 6’0 G Early College
The primary ball-handler for his high school team, Johnson-Dixon led them in points and assists. He picked apart defenses, then picked his spots to score. The touch on his passes mirrors the touch on his shots around the basket. Far from a finesse player, Johnson-Dixon competes on defense by deflecting passes off-ball and, when he drives, he seeks out contact to create space to operate in the paint.
#26 Kyle Thompson Jr Kyle Thompson Jr 5'9" | CG Sussex Tech | 2025 State DE | 5’9 G Sussex Tech
A dynamic athlete and an all-around hooper, the Sussex Tech guard is an energizer. He has a quick release, whether he’s getting up a floater or shooting a three. And he’s always on-the-go, pushing the pace in transition, cutting off-ball and relocating into open space on the perimeter. So he’s able to neutralize his size disadvantage and score in bunches. Thompson keeps that same energy on defense too, using his coverage skills from football to jump passing lanes.
#28 Zha’mere Crawford Zha’mere Crawford 6'0" | CG Dickinson | 2025 State DE | 5’11 G Dickinson
The Wilmington public school product creates for his team on and off the ball. Spotting up from college range or coming off of screens, Crawford has a potent jumper. But if he doesn’t like the shot that’s available to him or if he’s initiating the offense himself, Crawford can read and react to the rotating defense. His array of step throughs and spin moves counter defenders who are swarming towards him.
#31 Caleb Starks Caleb Starks 6'0" | CG Tatnall | 2025 State DE | 6’0 G Tatnall
Starks is a shooter you simply can’t leave open. He causes defenses to scramble as soon as he catches the ball because he shoots at a high volume. And even when they try to run him off the line, Starks has the craft to side-step into a three or get to his spots in the second level. Starks doesn’t just shoot; he also cleans the glass, hunting putback opportunities and closing out possessions on defense.
