2028 Watch List: 5 Shooting Guards to Know

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The 2028 class has only started their varsity careers, but that hasn't stopped them from making an impact on the hardwood. The shooting guard position is filled with talent and is set to have a strong 2025. Here are the 2028 shooting guard prospects to watch.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2504886' first='Malik' last='Moore'], 6'3 Union Catholic</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Moore has been a big part of the Vikings' offense so far this season as he is second on the team in scoring. The 6'3 guard has a good first step, which he uses to beat his defender off the bounce and can finish through contact. Moore is more than just a slasher as he has a nice release on his jumper and can make opponents pay for giving him space behind the arc. He is an underrated rebounder and uses his length to generate deflections on the defensive end. Moore has four games this season with at least 10 points and should put up more games like that throughout the course of the season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2194738' first='Ian' last='Archbold'], 6'4 Blair Academy</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Archbold is part of a talented Buccaneers' guard and wing group, but that hasn't stopped him from making an impact on the floor. The 6'4 guard knows how to get to his spot on the floor and rarely gets rattled by on-ball pressure. Archbold finishes strong above the rim and sets his feet before he shoots. He moves well without the ball in his hands and has the athelticism to defend multiple positions on the floor. Archbold is a talented guard prospect who will be one to track throughout the course of the season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Jameison Young, 6'1 Cherry Hill East</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Young has made a name for himself early in his varsity career as he leads the undefeated Cougars in scoring this season. The 6'1 guard has a clean release on his jumper and can knock down triples in bunches. Young moves well without the ball in his hands, freeing himself up for open jumpers and layups in the halfcourt. He is a solid passer and is able to get deflections on the defensive end. Young has three 20-point games so far this season and is looking to have more games like that in 2025.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2194744' first='AJ' last='Greig'], 6'4 Ramapo</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Greig has the potential to play either spot on the perimeter, making him an intriguing prospect to track in the class. The 6'4 wing rises up nicely on his jumper and wastes little motion in his release. Greig is more than just a shooter as he can also put the ball on the floor and get to the rim off the bounce. He is an underrated rebounder and slides his feet on defense. Greig has been Ramapo's top scorer so far this season and should continue to put up numbers for them throughout the course of the season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2683648' first='Jayce' last='Rodriguez'], 6'1 Colonia</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Rodriguez has provided the Patriots a spark on the perimeter and should continue to do so this season. The 6'1 guard has a smooth release on his jumper and can get hot from distance in a hurry. Rodriguez rarely forces shots in the halfcourt and knows how to free himself for open looks. He is a solid passer and moves his feet on the defensive end. Rodriguez poured in four triples against Ridge in his last game and has the potential to have more games like that throughout the course of the season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
