<p>NorCal Class of 2027 Rankings have been updated. These prospects played good basketball while we were in attendance against quality competition throughout the Spring and Summer, and during June with their High School Team. Here in NorCal we'll continue our search for quality players who deserve a ranking. We might miss a few but we'll continue to shine the light on NorCal Prospects.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">He's a quality guard with an expanding skill set for the guard position. He has speed, and quickness on both sides of the ball, quick twitch muscles. He has the handles to create his own shot opportunities, he's a willing passer. He'll stop on the dime for mid-range jumpers, he shows 3pt range, lots of speed attacking in transition. He's a top notch defender using lengthy arms and speed laterally to disrupt. His best play is in front of him.</p>

<!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} -->
<p class="text-gray-700">He doesn't quite get the attention he deserves right now. He's been a steady contributor with good all around play. He's a 6'2 combo guard for now. He can run the point with good patience up top, he pushes and passes up in transition, he fills lanes. He works off ball with 3pt range, he's a strong driver to the basket. </p>

<!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} -->
<p class="text-gray-700">He's a hard playing guard who'll get on the floor first. He has good foot speed, he's a good defender. At 6'2 he's a rebounding guard who can go with it, he has vision, a willing passer. He moves and slices his way into the paint handling contact. He has good handles to attack from different areas, and finish in different ways including reverses.</p>

<!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} -->
<p class="text-gray-700">Donnelly is an excellent shooter from behind the 3-point line. We watched him play at Section 7, then Cali-Live, he dropped big buckets at both events against quality competition at key moments in close games. He shoots it with confidence, range and a good release, gets his feet right. He doesn't use a lot of dribbles. He's good on the catch and shoot.</p>

<!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} -->
<p class="text-gray-700">At 6'4 he's bouncy and energetic. He's going out of his way, and space on both ends to get rebounds. He's still developing his skill set, so most his points will probably come from the work he does in and around the basket, put backs, tap ins, and power moves. He's an excellent defender, runs the court, defends perimeter to post. We'll keep an eye on this one. </p>

<!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} -->
<p class="text-gray-700">He played with NBBA on the UA Circuit 15U. A good ball handling guard with vision, he sees the court. He has good foot speed always moving in one direction or another. He'll slow the pace, run the offense up top, making good decisions. He handles and pushes fast in transition. He'll go hard, but under control finishing with paint jumpers, and floaters.</p>

<!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} -->
<p class="text-gray-700">He spent last season on the JV at Folsom. He'll be at Destiny Christian this season. He's a good ball handling guard, has the handles and moves to get his own shot, fast in transition, handling or filling lanes. He can knock down 3's spotting up along the perimeter, use his dribble to challenge defenders inside, he'll put it up high off the glass. </p>

<!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} -->
<p class="text-gray-700">Wheatley plays hard on both ends of the court. He can stay with fast handlers. He's a quality ball handler with vision, and passing to find open players in half court using good moves with hard dribble drives, and kicks outs to find open shooters, or pushing fast, and passing up in transition. He gets into the paint for jumpers, high off the glass either hand finishes. He has a nice mid-range jumper.</p>

<!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} -->
<p class="text-gray-700">A speedy quick point guard with excellent ball handling, vision and passing. He can control the offense in half-court sets, he pushes fast in transition. He's got moves to go by defenders, get into the paint for finishes in different ways, paint jumpers, floaters, he'll challenge bigs to block his shot. He's a tough minded player with speed and quickness to disrupt ball handlers.</p>
