Here's a look at some of the ones that should continue their rise through the spring.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2737299"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":["override_image"],"_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":2857650,"_player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":"field_62f141137ead9","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-681a5b9250dab"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Rankings rise: +35 (#122 to #87)</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">McGee first caught our attention at the start of the New Year when Umatilla won at the Salem Academy Crusader Classic with his raw athleticism and ability to run the floor. This got him on the map and he further impressed college coaches with these same qualities along with some developing perimeter skills. The ceiling is high for the 6-foot-3 swingman and he's definitely one to watch in the Class of 2027.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2539884"],"_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-681a5b9250e1a"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Rankings rise: +24 (#37 to #13)</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Breaux was one of the top newcomers in the entire state at any level in 2024-25. Given his combination of length and athleticism that was well evident in individual workouts, the 6-foot-5 swingman really proved himself in actual game play with Centennial this season and is on the cusp of making it into the Top Ten. In addition to finishing at the rim, Breaux can also create off the dribble as well as hit open shots, and finished the year averaging 14.6 points, 4.2 rebounds, and 1.8 blocked shots.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2684850"],"_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-681a5b9250e65"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Rankings rise: +22 (#34 to #12)</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Fellow Class of 2027 standout [player_tooltip player_id='2026062' first='RJ' last='Barhoum'] got most of the headlines this past year - and rightfully so - but don't sleep on Martinov. The 6-foot-3 wing may not be as flashy but he certainly gets the job done on the offensive end, capable of scoring at all three levels and using his athleticism to finish at the rim. Simply a great all-around player, he averaged 13.2 points, 5.0 rebounds, and a team-high 3.7 assists for Clackamas - and the best is yet to come.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2737286"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":["override_image"],"_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":2857660,"_player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":"field_62f141137ead9","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-681a5b9250ece"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">There's talk that Canby's Class of 2027 is one of the best single grade groups in the school's history and Cousin is one of the leaders. The hard-nosed guard played a key role off the bench for the Cougars in this season, particularly in their Cinerella run to the 5A state tournament. The 6-foot guard can play on or off the basketball at either guard spot, is capable of knocking down the three as well as create off the bounch and finish through contact.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2737295"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":["override_image"],"_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":2857669,"_player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":"field_62f141137ead9","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-681a5b9250f24"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Glencoe saw some solid improvement this past season thanks to some of their younger players, of which Darrington may be the best. The 6-foot-4 forward has solid size to compete inside but also excels facing the basket with his mid-range jumper. A solid rebounder and defender, he should see his role increase going into his junior season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
