<!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Here are some new additions to the updated 2027 rankings…</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2726872' first='Marcus' last='Perry']&nbsp;</strong>(6'3/SG/'27/Oxford HS)<strong>&nbsp;</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">IG: _.ihoopmarcus04</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">X: @Marcustotuff04</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Makes his debut at: #7</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Marcus is one of the most electrifying shooters in this class. There was buzz around his name last year, but he has stepped his game up and is competing at a high level. He has many tools in his bag and can hurt opponents in multiple ways at all levels. He is very confident, and this is evident in his play. I like the trajectory he is on, coupled with his physical attributes.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2726884' first='Jordan' last='Garcia'] </strong>(6'2/CG/'27/Chelsea) </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">IG: @Jordangarcia42</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Makes his debut at: #19</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Jordan is a talented combo guard who has shown his ability to impact both ends of the floor. He is really aggressive on the offensive end of the floor and is really good at getting downhill. He has a game that draws fouls, earning him trips to the line. He finishes with good strength and body control, even if there is congestion in the paint or around the rim. He is a bright spot for the Hornets and look for Jordan to be in the driver's seat of this squad next year.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2726864' first='Chris' last='Latson']</strong> (6'4/‘27/F/Oxford)</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">IG: thaaatboichris</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">X: @thaatboii_chris</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Makes his debut at: #21</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Chris is a versatile wing with length and is a glue guy on his squad. He impacts the stat sheet across several categories. He is a talented athlete with high potential and continues to improve throughout the season. He can easily flirt with a double-double on any night. He is a consistent source of inside scoring, and I have seen him be a match-up problem due to his positional size and length. I expect Chris to be a reason that Oxford makes a push in the playoffs.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>Keith Turner, III.</strong> (6'0/PG/'27/Saraland)</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">X: @imscoot23</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Makes his debut at: #22</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Keith is just now hitting his stride, as he had a long season on the gridiron with his team making it to Birmingham. He has been a solid lead guard who has been a consistent piece coming off the bench and keeping the team flowing. He brings energy and effort off the bench, and a component that coaches love from the floor generals which is being vocal.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2726852' first='Conner' last='Downey Richerzhagen']</strong> (6'1/SG/'27/Oxford) </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">X: @CRich2027</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Makes his debut at: #43</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Conner is a knockdown shooter, which is his game's strength. He doesn't veer off from his specialty and what he brings to the floor. He will be a key piece to his team, being able to keep the floor spaced, especially as playoffs begin and teams get to the larger floors in regional play.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>Greg Davi</strong>s (6'5/SF/'27/Vigor)</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">IG: Nxt_.g1</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Makes his debut at: #45</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Greg has been outstanding for his squad early. His coaches love his development and how he continues to settle into his role. He rebounds extremely well and is becoming more confident on the offensive end of the floor. He brings a lot of energy to the floor and makes life tough for opponents on the inside. He is starting to show some versatility as his coach is giving him some burn out on the perimeter. Greg is a player with an excellent upside and look for him to climb in the rankings over the next couple of years.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2726858' first='Eli' last='Patterson']</strong> (CG/'27/Appalachian) </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">IG: eli_patterson1</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Makes his debut at: #46</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Eli is a small lead guard who plays with poise and patience. What I really like about his game is that the times I have watched him compete, he never appears rushed, and the defense cannot speed him up. He is a heady floor general who knows how to orchestrate the offense and keep his team flowing in what his coach wants. He is locked in on every possession on both ends of the court, which is why his team has the opportunity to get quality trips on every possession.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
