<!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">The 2029 rankings are here and this class has a chance to be special. Here are the top 5 players in the rankings debut…</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2889872' first='RJ' last='Hasberry']</strong> (6'1/CG/'29/Hazel Green)</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">X: @ShowemRj</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Ranking: #1</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">RJ is an elite two-way guard with exceptional basketball IQ for his age and physical tools, including long arms and big hands, that allow him to impact the game on both ends. Offensively, he is skilled and with the ability to score at all three levels. He excels in ball-screen situations, reads the floor well, and consistently makes the right play. Defensively, he is underrated, as he anticipates well, defends on and off the ball, and plays within a team structure. RJ plays the game with maturity and purpose beyond his age.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2889558' first='Braylen' last='Alexander']</strong> (6'4/Wing/'29/Glenwood)</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">IG: Braylenalexander_</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">X: @Brayalexander_</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Ranking: #2</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Braylen is a high-upside wing who is just scratching the surface of his potential. He hass dedicated himself to the weight room and fundamentals, and it is already paying off. He is long, coachable, and team-oriented, as he is always looking to get others involved. Defensively, he takes pride in his assignments and routinely asks to guard the opposing team's best player. His size, frame, and growth trajectory point to a sky-high ceiling.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2889160' first='Xavier' last='Beavers']</strong>&nbsp;(6'1/CG/'29/Clay-Chalkville)&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">IG: 2010.Zay_</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">X: @BeaversXavier11</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Ranking: #3</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Xavier is a dynamic lead guard and future face of the Cougars' program. He has a quick first step, elite playmaking instincts, and the ability to score and facilitate in transition and half court. He is a multi-level scorer who attacks with confidence and possess scoring versatility, allowing him to make an impact whether on or off the ball.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2889583' first='Jayden' last='Sears']</strong> (5'11/SG/'29/Lauderdale County)</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">IG: @jaydensears5</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Ranking: #4</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Jayden is a skilled combo guard with elite ball-handling and court vision. His ability to create off the bounce and make reads puts him ahead of the curve. He is really good at finishing with creativity at the rim, has a reliable jumper, and plays with a natural rhythm. On defense, he is really good, as he pressures full court, jumps passing lanes, and plays with great anticipation.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2889865' first='Eric' last='Foster, III'].</strong> (5'11/CG/'29/Lee-Huntsville)</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">IG: ericfosteriii</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Ranking: #5</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Eric is a smart, skilled combo guard who checks every box. He started on varsity as an 8th grader and grew steadily throughout the season. He is a three-level scorer with great instincts, plays with a calm demeanor, and competes with confidence. Off the court, he is just as impressive, as he is a high academic achiever and relentless worker.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:separator --> <hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity" /> <!-- /wp:separator --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">🏀 <strong>Join Us for the #PHTheExpoAL Camp! </strong>🏀</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Are you ready to take your game to the next level?
