<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The 2025 rankings update is finally here with over 275 prospects making up the update. The shooting guard position has the most prospects of any position in the update with over 80 shooting guards. Here are the top shooting guards in the 2025 rankings update.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1958321' first='Brandon' last='Lee'], 6'5 Patrick School</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Lee is the top ranked prospect in the class and has started off the season on a strong note. The Illinois commit has a smooth release on his jumper and can knock down triples from distance in bunches. Lee can also put the ball on the floor and finishes nicely around the basket. He is an underrated passer and slides his feet on the defensive end. Lee is a sharpshooting guard prospect who should continue to torch the nets from distance in 2024-25.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1411410' first='Keith' last='McKnight'], 6'6 Hudson Catholic</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>McKnight has the ability to play either spot on the wing, making him one of the more intriguing prospects in the class. The Quinnipiac commit has a good first step, which he uses to blow by his defender off the bounce and finishes nicely at the basket. McKnight uses his size to see over his defender and rises up nicely on his jumper. He is a strong rebounder and has the length to defend multiple positions on the floor. McKnight is a lanky guard prospect who will be filling up the stat sheet throughout the course of the season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1411401' first='Emmanuel' last='Joe-Samuel'], 6'4 Camden</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Joe-Samuel has been on a tear to start off the season as he has eclipsed 30 points in both games so far. The 6'4 guard attacks the basket with a purpose as he finishes strong at the rim and is unafraid of drawing contact. Joe-Samuel is more than just a slasher as he has a good release on his jumper and can get hot from distance in a hurry. He fights for rebounds on both ends of the floor and works hard on the defensive end. Joe-Samuel is the highest ranked uncommitted prospect in the class and his recruitment will be one to track over the next couple of months.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1411403' first='Brady' last='Loughlin'], 6'5 Don Bosco Prep</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Loughlin is one of the top shooters in the Garden State and should put it on display this season. The Brown commit has a clean release on his jumper and makes opponents pay for giving him space behind the arc. Loughlin moves well without the ball in his hands, freeing himself for open jumpers and layups in the halfcourt. He is an underrated passer and can get deflections on the defensive end. Loughlin will shoulder a bigger scoring load this season and will be torching the nets from distance throughout the course of the season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1411409' first='Omari' last='Moore'], 6'3 Manhattan</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Moore has been a key part of the Hawks' offense for the last three seasons and should continue to do so in 2024-25. The Manhattan commit has a nice handle, which he uses to beat his defender off the bounce and can finish in a variety of ways around the basket. Moore can also score in the mid-range and wastes little motion in his jumper. He moves well without the ball in his hands and is an underrated defender. Moore has the potential to have a big senior season with his ability to score inside and out.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Other Prospects to Watch:</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1456864' first='Myles' last='Parker'], 6'7 Rutgers Prep</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1382983' first='Deuce' last='Maxey'], 6'2 College Achieve</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1411621' first='Myles' last='Blackley'], 6'3 Immaculate Conception</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1213561' first='Brendan' last='Oliver'], 6'6 Blair Academy</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1974140' first='AJ' last='Mickens'], 6'4 Hun</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
