Prep Hoops Indiana Class of 2028 Prospect Rankings: 20-16

We released our updated Class of 2028 Prospect Rankings on Monday evening. This update featured our first shot at ranking the Top 25 prospects in the class, over 50 new names, and the growth of our database to nearly 350 names in the current freshman class. As always, here at Prep Hoops Indiana, we don't just release rankings and forget about them. We strive to always dive deeper than that. Throughout this week we will be highlighting each of the Top 25 prospects, going over some of the new names added to the Watch List, and taking a closer look at some of the highest upside prospects that narrowly missed the cut in our initial Top 25. Let's take a closer look at prospects 20-16.   <a href="https://prephoops.com/2025/03/prep-hoops-indiana-class-of-2028-prospect-rankings-25-21/">Prospects 25-21</a>    Johnson has stepped in from day one at Muncie Central High School and been the Bearcats leading scorer at 11.0 points per game. The long, fluid, 6'2" athlete is very versatile on the wing at both ends of the floor. His best basketball is still to come well down the road, but he is already in a very good spot in his development.     Bishop Luers enters the IHSAA State Tournament as one of the favorites to cut down the nets at Gainbridge Fieldhouse in Class 2A. The Knights' plethora of talent is the only reason that this 6'2" wing isn't seeing the floor more regularly. There are a lot of schools across the state were Moore would be having an immediate, large impact.     One of the more physical front court pieces in the current freshman class, Eldridge has been able to play his way onto the floor at the varsity level for Fort Wayne Wayne. He communicates at a high level for a young prospect and is consistently involved defensively and on the glass. It will be fun to watch his progress over the coming years as one of the top prospects in Fort Wayne.     We have yet to see this prospect play a minute of varsity basketball. However, anytime you see a legitimate 6'8" center at Carmel High School that has some impressive raw skills you know he will be a big time player down the road. That is just the way the process works at a place like that. Remember the name, because Shostak will be one of the top big men in Indiana's Class of 2028 when it is all said and done.     Gilbert has gotten some varsity action as a freshman at Warren Central, but it is his upside that is really exciting. At 6'5", Gilbert has perimeter skill level and impressive athleticism. As he continues to get stronger and tighten his handle his game will really take off to another level. Very intriguing long term prospect.
