He's a bit under-sized at 6-foot-5 but easily makes up for it with his strong frame and skill set around the painted area. He's a matchup nightmare and was a double-double machine in the making for the Knights as they made this year's NCISAA Elite Eight in the state playoffs.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2560550"],"_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-67b812f5e838a"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Gerould is an emerging forward prospect to make note of at Gaston Day School in the NCISAA. He checks in at 30th overall and the No. 2 power forward prospect in the 2028 rankings debut. He's listed at just 6-foot-5 but plays a lot bigger than that given his length and athleticism around the rim. He's gotten his feet wet alongside [player_tooltip player_id='2559281' first='Dyson' last='Britt'] in the Spartans rotation this season and is set for a productive spring/summer before a potential breakout sophomore season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2560549"],"_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-67b812f5e83cf"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">McSweeney is a young forward prospect to get eyes on at Covenant Day School. He checks in at 36th overall and the No. 3 ranked power forward prospect in the 2028 rankings. He's shown he can operate at either forward spot at 6-foot-4 with quite the versatility. Offensively, he has a knack for making things happen as a shooting threat as well as a rebounder. Defensively, he's learning how to make an impact with his length and athleticism. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2623268"],"_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-67b812f5e840b"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Dalton made quite the impression on the Forsyth Country Day rotation this season. He checks in at 37th overall and the fourth-ranked power forward prospect following a productive season and a run in the NCISAA State Playoffs. He produced 8.0 points and 4.4 rebounds per game as a freshman and is set to do a whole lot more damage going forward. He's a prospect to keep eyes on in the 2028 rankings.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2554467"],"_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-67b812f5e8445"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Brunson is an emerging presence to get to know in the Cleveland Rams frontcourt. He's another prospect who's shown he can operate at either forward spot, ranking 44th overall and fifth at the power forward spot. He was productive in his freshman season with 7.1 points and 6.3 rebounds per contest. Given his athleticism and expanding perimeter game, look for his stock to grow soon.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2699919"],"_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-67b812f5e847c"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Solheim checks in at No. 48 overall and the No. 6 ranked power forward prospect out of Northwest Guilford High. He's an active presence at 6-foot-5 who's shown he can fly around on both ends of the floor and make things happen. He can fill it up in a variety of ways scoring then can alter shots and be a presence in the paint defensively, rebounding the ball and altering shots. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2779393"],"_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-67b812f5e84b3"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Hollifield is the last of the power forward prospects to get to know in the 2028 rankings, checking in at 49th overall and seventh-ranked positionally. He's the latest Hollfield to showcase his skills on the hardwood for Shelby, producing 11.2 points and 9.5 rebounds per game in his freshman season, racking up five double-doubles and leading the Southern Piedmont Conference in rebounds. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
