Top South Dakota 2029 Prospects

<p>Who are some of the top up-and-coming 2029 prospects in the state of South Dakota? We'll look at some of the ELITE 2029 prospects South Dakota has to offer, as well as those that are highly-skilled or advanced for their age. <br></p>   <p>Prep Hoops Dakotas will go into more detail with the 2029 class as I watch more and learn more about the class. But with this, we just wanted to mention some of the top of the top prospects to watch out for.</p>   <p>There are certainly more prospects that are worthy to be on this list, but I stuck with eight prospects for now. </p>    <p>Woods is the talk of the 2029 class. He possesses elite positioninal size and athleticism, as you'll see below. He's a high-flying guard that is easily dunking the ball as an eighth-grader. His older brother, Jhace, most likely has the highest vertical in the state. Plenty of more updates on Noah throughout the offseason coming. He's with [program_tooltip program_id='2222672' first='Sanford' last='Sports Academy']'s top 14U team. Holds the Howard Wood high jump record. Big-time stuff.</p>   <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-instagram wp-block-embed-instagram"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://www.instagram.com/reel/DHCX-xBxNTi/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_linku0026amp;igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA== </div></figure>   <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-instagram wp-block-embed-instagram"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://www.instagram.com/reel/DGeY7iYRDRY/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_linku0026amp;igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA== </div></figure>     <p class="text-gray-700">Williamson was listed at 6'2” at the beginning of the season for Rapid City Central's top Freshman squad. So he was playing a year up, and Sanford has him at 6'4” on their website, so he must have grown a couple inches throughout the season. I've also noticed that Sanford is conservative and reasonable with their height listings. I've only seen him on film once, but he came off as a top-level prospect. Especially if he's already up to 6'4” with supreme length.</p>   <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-instagram wp-block-embed-instagram"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://www.instagram.com/reel/DE-kRL0xqwp/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA== </div></figure>   <p><a href="https://www.instagram.com/reel/DE-kRL0xqwp/?utm_source=ig_embed&utm_campaign=loading" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"></a></p>     <p class="text-gray-700">Porisch is a known commodity in the 2029 class. He's so far advanced with his mature size and frame as a 2029 prospect. He has the frame of a developed Senior prospect. The hope is he continues to get taller, because I think he's best fit as an interior guy that can stretch from three some.</p>     <p class="text-gray-700">I haven't seen much on Miles, as I'm in the early stages of learning the 2029 class, but it's clear to see that Thompson is a baller, playmaker, and scorer. Check him out on the Prep Hoops Circuit below.</p>   <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-instagram wp-block-embed-instagram"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://www.instagram.com/reel/DIKSivRynxU/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_linku0026amp;igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA== </div></figure>     <p class="text-gray-700">Owen is extremely polished, poised, and skilled. He was playing with Hamlin's JV as a ball-handler. He'll be the ball-handler of the present and future for Hamlin's varsity. A legit shooter and shot-maker from range. Hamlin Head Coach Todd Neuendorf will be guiding Taschner throughout the offseason as well, because he's coaching [program_tooltip program_id='2444909' first='Heiser' last='Skills Academy'] 14U.</p>     <p class="text-gray-700">Malcolm is a big-body true Big that controls the paint with power, size, and consistent and persistent action towards the ball. I think he'll be one of the next top true Bigs in the state by the time he's a Sophomore. Will need to get taller and cut some off of his frame to finish as a top prospect. A few directions of outcomes for Williams. </p>     <p class="text-gray-700">Bruns played varsity for Dakota Valley. His game is based off his rare quickness and suddenness. He can handle it at speed and can shoot the rock. Crazy amount of shiftiness with the ball. If he has a couple nice growth spurts, he could become a major prospect. Bruns is playing up again this summer with Sanford, playing on the top 15U team.</p>     <p class="text-gray-700">I discovered Hackett yesterday, watching West Central 8th graders. More needs to be seen but he immediately popped with guard length, movement, skill, and athleticism. He could handle the point, jump effortlessly, and move extremely well in all directions. Could be a top level guy that many aren't talking about.</p>     <p class="text-gray-700">After watching [program_tooltip program_id='2228190' first='TEAM' last='Warwick'] 14U at the Omaha Showcase, I updated the article and entered in Soukup. Soukup is a legitimate prospect in the class that I'm banking on continuing growing taller. I think he's best served developing into a physical 4-man/Big, that spends most of his time battling for the ball and scoring through contact at the rim. Cohen runs and moves well, but his physicality and motor set him apart most. He is a high-level finisher at the rim and is unphased by bodies around and on him. He has a Nick Hanson type feel and game, and if Cohen gets up to 6'8”, he will be a better prospect. </p>
