2026 Rankings Update: Top Stock-Risers

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The 2026 rankings update came out on Monday with over 250 prospects being ranked. Prospects jumped up the board as they do in every update. Here are the top stock-risers from the 2026 rankings update.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1948974' first='Andrew' last='Adegbite'], 6'5 PF Pompton Lakes</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Adegbite moved up the most spots in the update, as he went up 46 spots. The 6'5 forward explodes off the floor for dunks and is able to draw contact around the rim. Adegbite can also put the ball on the floor and sets his feet before he shoots. He skies for rebounds on both ends of the floor and uses his athleticism to make plays on the defensive end. Adegbite picked up a pair of offers from Georgian Court and Millersville this spring and is looking to add to that number this summer.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2505093' first='Callan' last='Murphy'], 6'0 PG Blair Academy</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Murphy saw the biggest jump of any back court player as he went up 29 spots in the update. The 6'0 guard has a smooth release on his jumper and can get hot from distance in a hurry. Murphy moves well without the ball in his hands, freeing himself up for open layups and jumpers in the half court. He rarely forces jumpers in the half court and slides his feet on the defensive end. Murphy is a sharpshooting guard prospect who should torch the nets from distance this summer.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2107943' first='JP' last='Skoric'], 6'8 PF/SF Don Bosco Prep</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Skoric jumped up 16 spots in the update as he was able to show his ability to play either forward spot. The 6'8 forward wastes little motion on his release and can get hot from distance in a hurry. Skoric does more than just shoot as he can also put the ball on the floor and finish in the mid-range. He works for rebounds on both ends of the floor and uses his length to influence shots around the rim. Skoric's versatility is something that will help his stock go even higher this summer.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1989267' first='Derek' last='Gomez'], 6'5 PF St. Peter's Prep</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Gomez moved up 11 spots in the update and has the potential to move up even more. The 6'5 forward has a solid face-up game as he can put the ball on the floor and his range extends out to the three-point line. Gomez uses his strong frame to get position down low and is able to make shots through contact. He fights for rebounds on both ends of the floor and holds his ground on the defensive end. Gomez is a tough forward prospect whose ability to stretch the floor and defend the paint will help his game in a big way throughout the summer.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2342605' first='Trevor' last='Whitaker'], 6'4 SG Union Catholic</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Whitaker jumped 10 spots in the update as he was able to put his game on display. The 6'4 guard has a good first step, which he uses to blow by his defender off the bounce and can finish through contact. Whitaker is more than just a slasher as he has a good release on his jumper and rises up nicely on his jumper. He has the length to defend multiple positions on the floor and is an underrated passer. Whitaker is a lanky wing prospect who should continue to make noise this summer with his ability to impact the game at both ends of the floor.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Other Prospects to Watch:</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1948970' first='Donald' last='Nwaigwe'], 6'4 SF Piscataway</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2107955' first='George' last='Boley'], 6'3 SG/PG Jackson Memorial</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2139578' first='Jordan' last='Owens'], 6'1 CG Holy Cross Prep</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1608251' first='Bryce' last='Hillman'], 6'2 CG/PG Camden Eastside</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1764304' first='Gabe' last='Hornberger'], 6'5 SG/CG Peddie</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
