2028 Rankings Update: New Names Part 1

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>It's so so early to rank 2028 players so the list is very volatile at this point. In this first update of the rankings, there are a lot of new names. Here are some of the highest ranked newcomers to the rankings.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2694628"],"_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-67852cb22d09d"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Austin is the highest ranked new name in the class and has a ton of long term potential in addition to his current on court production. Standing 6'5, Davie is comfortable playing inside or out and has already made multiple threes in several games. Perhaps his biggest asset is Davie's motor. He plays hard and with a bit of a chip on his shoulder.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2541123"],"_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-67852cb22d0f5"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Akins is a scoring guard who is a good athlete and he excels at getting into the paint and making the defense either collapse on him or he finishes over them. Ryder has the athleticism to be a good defender and is potentially the next 13th region star for the next few years.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2451397"],"_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-67852cb22d13d"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Mahorn has literally grown up in a gym and it shows in how he carries himself. Khi's basketball IQ is ahead of his time and he's excellent at directing a team even at this young age. A good shooter, expect Khi to be one of the top guards in the 8th region by this time next year. Especially if he gets anywhere near his dad's size (6'6).</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2194461"],"_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-67852cb22d180"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Austin is known as a shooter and the fact he's taken more threes than twos as a freshman backs that up. As he grows and gets stronger, look for Sears to get more comfortable absorbing contact and getting to the free throw line early and often during games. As a 34% three point shooter already, Sears will only see that number go up as he starts showing defenses that he's as much of a threat to attack the rim and he starts getting clean looks from three.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
