<p>A 5-10 sniper from the 3-point line, Perrin is shooting 45.2% from 3-point range so far in his freshman year, shooting it exceptionally well off the catch. He does a great job getting his feet set and ready to fire off the catch and he moves really well without the ball in his hands. </p>

<p>Another skilled shooter who does most of his work off the ball at this point in time, Moret is averaging 7.2 points per game on 49-39-76 shooting splits. He shoots it really well off the catch and is constant motion on the offensive end of the floor.</p>

<p>Brown is one of the best guards in the class, at least at this point in their development, in ball screen actions. He reads the floor well and is able to either turn the corner and get to the rim, pull up and shoot it, or find the roll (or pop) man with a nice pass. He plays with good pace and is able to maintain his speed while changing directions. He finishes well with both hands around the rim.</p>

<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Applewhite is a pass-first guard who looks to get into the teeth of the defense and find his teammates. He sees the floor well, handles it at a high level, and is a good, creative finisher around the rim with either hand.</p>

<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Larsen may end up being one of the best pure shooters in the class. He has a really quick release off the catch, moves exceptionally well without the ball in his hands, and he has "in the gym" range.</p>

<p><strong>(26) [player_tooltip player_id='2523894' first='Dane' last='Miller'] | SF | Clear Lake</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Miller is really good on the glass on both ends of the floor. An athletic wing who loves to attack the glass, he's also a good enough ball-handler and decision-maker to lead the break after pulling down a board. With his length, athleticism, and IQ, he'll be a valuable and versatile weapon on both ends of the floor for the Lions moving forward.</p>

<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Spencer has had a strong freshman year for the Falcons, averaging 11.3 points and 6.9 rebounds, both second on the team. A 6-3 forward who finishes effectively around the rim with either hand, he's shooting nearly 53% from the field.</p>

<p><strong>(28) [player_tooltip player_id='2523895' first='Declan' last='Heying'] | PF | Des Moines Christian</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Heying is a young big man that I'm excited to watch develop over the next few years as part of a really good 2028 group at DMC. He's a big body and a skilled lefty who uses his frame well to carve out space on the block. He handles it pretty well for a 6-5/6-6 player at this age and he passes it well too.</p>

<p><strong>(29) [player_tooltip player_id='2523896' first='Drew' last='Cavazos'] | SF | Waukee Northwest</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Cavazos is a big, skilled wing with length who can play with or without the ball in his hands. He handles it well, sees the floor at a high level, and shoots it at a high clip off both the dribble and the catch. In addition to his work on the offensive end, he can also defend a few different spots with his combination of size, length, and athleticism. </p>

<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>A 6-4 big man with soft hands, nimble feet, and deft touch around the rim, Robertson is built like a defensive end but plays with some real grace and finesse on the hardwood. He's averaging 8.0 points and 4.9 rebounds on over 55% shooting as a freshman. </p>
