Updated Class of 2026 Rankings – Top Frontcourt Newcomers

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Our post-spring update of the Class of 2026 rankings is complete and a number of new names have been added to the list. Here's a look at some of the top frontcourt players who make their debut.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>51 - [player_tooltip player_id='2442280' first='Harold' last='Turner'], Centennial - Mostly a JV player at Benson last season, Turner figures to be a rotation varsity guy at Centennial in 2024-25. He's long and lanky at 6-foot-4, runs the floor and finishes in transition, and has potential as a shot-blocker on the defensive end. A lot of upside with his game as he continues to get stronger and further develop his skill set.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>54 - [player_tooltip player_id='2468461' first='Aydn' last='Dallum'], McNary - A transfer up from 1A Crosshill Christian, the transition to 6A for Dallum went pretty well. The 6-foot-5 post quickly got adjusted to the physical nature of the game and was the Celtics' top inside threat at 5.2 points and 5.0 rebounds per game. Dallum has a solid face-up jumper out past mid-range.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>63 - [player_tooltip player_id='2469344' first='Zaden' last='Richardson'], Nelson - At 6-foot-6, Richardson is more on the lanky side but runs the floor well and his combination of length and athleticism allows him to be a factor on the boards and on defense. Offensively, he has a solid face-up jumper and has the ability to create a bit off the dribble as well.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>67 - [player_tooltip player_id='2469346' first='Connor' last='Lemmon'], Oregon City - Lemmon is a throwback, traditional back-to-the-basket post player. The 6-foot-6 rising junior uses his strong build and strength to establish position on the low block and is able to be an effective scorer with basic moves. He's been a physical presence for the Pioneers this summer.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>80 - [player_tooltip player_id='2469270' first='Quinn' last='Wicklow'], Jesuit - Jesuit will be guard dominated in 2024-25 - and rightfully so - but a big man who make an impact is Wickow. During June ball, we were impressed with the way he moved down the floor, set up shop down low, had soft hands, good footwork, and a nice touch on his shot. His future may be in football but he'll be a solid contributor in hoops too.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>94 - [player_tooltip player_id='2393199' first='Markuss' last='Kagis'], West Linn - Arguably the biggest mystery on this list, Kagis checks in at 6-foot-7 and you can't argue with raw size and decent mobility. He's been running with West Linn this summer and with some coaching and development, could be a player down the line.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading {"level":1} --> <h1 class="wp-block-heading"></h1> <!-- /wp:heading -->
