2026 Rankings Update: Overlooked Wings

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The 2026 class has some good depth to it and is full of scholarship level prospects. With their last year of AAU on the horizon, these Juniors have a chance to get on the radar of teams this spring and summer. Here are some Wing players who are a little overlooked right now.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1543323"],"_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-67e70e8929533"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Phillips had a strong Junior season after a tumultuous offseason and is riding some positive momentum into the AAU season. A skilled wing who is effective scoring at all 3 levels, Kendall is on track to be one of the best scorers in the history of the 12th region. With a good frame and the ability to finish at the rim, Phillips is a top sleeper prospect in the state.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1901828"],"_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-67e70e89295a1"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Staying in the 12th region, [player_tooltip player_id='1901828' first='Zach' last='Hutchinson'] is an athlete wing who is a good jump shooter and has the physical tools to earn scholarships this summer. Zach has good size at 6'5 and is athletic enough to play above the rim when needed. He's a solid shooter at 35% from three but needs to be more effective on the defensive end and on the boards to reach his ceiling.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1563824"],"_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-67e70e8929611"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Johnson is part of a loaded roster for Saint X but does hold an early offer from EKU. Bryce had moderate stats this season for the Tigers but a stat sheet cannot encapsulate everything that he does to impact winning for his teams. With a big AAU season ahead, look for Bryce to have a bigger role with [program_tooltip program_id='2478682' first='Kentucky' last='Ambition'] than what he had with his high school club this season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2528380"],"_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-67e70e8929658"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Narrowly missing averaging a double double this high school season, Graves is a high ceiling player who is still working towards his best basketball. Jaciyon averaged 9 points and 9 rebounds for Danville and showed potential as a big wing as he shot 36% from three this season and should continue to boost his stock as he gets more comfortable away from the basket and developing into a two way threat.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2175419"],"_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-67e70e892969d"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Call it recency bias but Wuchterl just hit 10 threes in the Elite 8 at Rupp today and has shot nearly 50% from three this season. Kolton is a long wing who has a quick release and knows how to work to get open and can get shot ready in a hurry. Wuchterl is riding a wave of momentum into the weekend at Rupp and on to the NXT PRO circuit with [program_tooltip program_id='2335148' first='Kentuckiana' last='Hoops'].</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
