<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>There are some talented and intriguing post prospects in Michigan right now that coaches, scouts and fans should have on their radar! We'll look at 3 post players from the class of 2026 and 2 from the class of 2027.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Take a look at some inside looks at PG's from these same classes below!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://prephoops.com/2024/10/inside-look-at-pgs-2026-2027/","type":"wp-embed","providerNameSlug":"prep-hoops"} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-wp-embed is-provider-prep-hoops wp-block-embed-prep-hoops"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://prephoops.com/2024/10/inside-look-at-pgs-2026-2027/ </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1806491"],"_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-671797b42d516"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Vanderwaal turned a lot of heads with his play over the summer and will continue to do so this winter. He has potential and the type of game needed to average a points and rebounds double-double in high school play. Vanderwaal is a true 2 way player that brings a ton of energy and effort to the defensive end. He will make it tough for opponents to score close to the rim this coming season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1806400"],"_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-671797b42d584"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Jansenvanvuren is an elite all around athlete. He has a handful of Division 1 football offers, but the young man can hoop as well. He was a 2nd team All Conference player for Waterford Mott as a sophomore. Jansenvanvuren proved to be a ferocious finisher and a constant paint presence on the glass. He helped lead his squad to an LVC championship last year.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1864825"],"_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-671797b42d5cd"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Viehman had to sit out last season due to transfer rules, so it will be fun to watch him perform this season. He's an athletic forward that can face the rim and put points on the board. When he develops a counter move to his spin move, the sky is the limit. Viehman ended the summer playing his best ball with the Midwest Stampede and all signs point to that continuing. He's a key part to one of the most talented and underrated collection of 2026's at Traverse City Central.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2446088"],"_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-671797b42d60f"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">The number next to his name doesn't do justice to his game. Hunter has as much upside as almost any post player in the class of 2027. Hunter can power his way into position under the rim and can really play effectively with his back to the basket. Obviously, with his size and strength, his rebounding will be clear and critical this winter.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2383843"],"_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-671797b42d650"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Ajuong has a lot to offer as a player and a prospect and is a name that should be highlighted for a lot of coaches. Let's start with the obvious, Ajuong is an elite all around athlete that can finish above the rim and cause nightmares for opponents in transition. But he's also shown a much improved jumper that will make even tougher to defend.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->

There are some talented and intriguing post prospects in Michigan right now that coaches, scouts and fans should have on their radar! We'll look at 3 post players from the class of 2026 and 2 from the class of 2027.
