<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>We have more 2028 rankings content to help you get up to speed with some of the names to know in this freshmen class. Here are a handful of wings and posts who have flashed some big potential and are firmly among some top names to know in this class.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2627281"],"_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-679c3314a08df"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">McNeal is a true dual-sport threat, garnering division-one offers from high major schools in football, and proving to be a real factor in basketball, already slipping into the starting five and contributing in a big way at Eastside Catholic. He's a legit athlete who attacks the glass, can get the board and handles well enough to push it himself at times, and has that ready-made toughness and physicality to get buckets inside. He should continue to develop more wing skills, already showing a solid stroke in the midrange and the ability to take defenders off the dribble with quick bursts.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2547345"],"_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-679c3314a09af"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Bristol is a physically mature player at 6-foot-5 who has the strength to hold off defenders on drives and finish around bodies at the rim. He's also shown an ability to knock down outside shots, capitalize on space in the midrange, and has the awareness and activity defensively to get his hands in passing lanes. He's a wing who could end up closer to the top of these rankings when all is said and done and could be the next big player out of O'Dea.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2547463"],"_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-679c3314a0a26"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">The freshman wing/guard was an excellent performer over the spring and summer and has proven to be a solid player in Auburn's rotation this winter. He's got some length and some inherent feel for how to score the ball, especially with getting to the rim and hitting those midrange shots. He does well to incorporate ball fakes and jabs, has a good initial burst and a little shiftiness getting downhill. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2716621"],"_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-679c3314a0a94"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Floyd is a pretty skilled forward from the east side of the state who has the work rate inside to factor in around the rim, and the skills to take his game further out to drill shots in the midrange and even step out behind the arc to hit some perimeter shots. He also shows a good feel for decision-making with the ball, can be an asset setting up teammates, and already plays a sizeable role for the Saxons.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2544176"],"_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-679c3314a0b05"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">The Bremerton big man has shown a lot to like about his game and where it could end up. He's shown some flashes of post work, taking his time to work down low and get his shots up with good footwork. He has good awareness from the high post, taking open shots and seeing behind the defense to make some good reads for passes down low. He's one of the few true big men in this class we've found and he shows all the signs of being a legit prospect down the line.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2628456"],"_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-679c3314a0b76"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Brown is an athletic wing who does his best work around the paint but also has a jumper that can extend to 3-point range and should continue to get more consistent from further out. He's been able to physically outplay much of his competition to this point, rebounding, scoring at the rim, and blocking shots inside, but he's a kid who has all the tools to develop into a solid wing prospect and is one of the better lower classification prospects in his class who can flat out play.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2543842"],"_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-679c3314a0be6"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Desta has some real length and looks like a kid who could develop into an impact defender. He's already showing how that length can get in passing lanes, disrupt rhythm on the perimeter, and make guys uncomfortable in the corners. He also shows some good instincts on the move, not forcing up shots on drives but looking to make the right play whether that's scoring or passing. He's a kid who looks like he still has a lot of growing to do too and could be a guy that makes some big leaps in the coming years.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
