Don’t Sleep On These Unsigned 2025 Forwards

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>In this article I run down a list of forwards that are still on the market. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2797838"],"_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-681173e435e14"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='2797838' first='Shane' last='Nelson'] also made his debut in the rankings just 2 months ago. He stands at 6'6 and moves very well for a guy his size. He can protect the paint and also gathers a decent amount of rebounds. Nelson also plays above the rim on offense, and can throw down dunks or tip-in shots. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Stats - 5 PPG, 2.9 RPG, .8 BPG. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2797870"],"_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-681173e435e6f"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>I featured [player_tooltip player_id='2797870' first='Logan' last='Wright'] in my new rankings "New Shooters" article a couple of months ago. He is a long small forward that can connect on catch and shoot opportunities. When you watch him shoot you notice that he gets his shot off quickly, and he also has a high release point. As a defender, Wright looks to shut down passing lanes with his wingspan and he can help with traps as well. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Stats - 8.4 PPG, 3.3 RPG, 1 APG, .7 BPG</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1235060"],"_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-681173e435eb6"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1235060' first='Kevan' last='Wilkins'] led the way for Spring Valley this year.

Wilkins had a 28 point game against Green Valley. I would also say that Wilkins should be able to handle guarding collegiate players, as he is 6'4 and has some muscle on him. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Stats - 18.8 PPG, 2.9 RPG, 1.8 SPG, .5 APG</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2358865"],"_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-681173e435ef7"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='2358865' first='Luca' last='Walema'] is a versatile forward that can go to work in the paint, or make long range shots.
