Summer Stock Risers - Rising Seniors

The AAU season has concluded and over a handful of live periods, members from the Class of 2026 had their final opportunity to make an impression on college coaches in attendance. A number of these players made an impression and in some cases it has resulted in an uptick in their college recruitment. Here's a quick look at some of the top stock risers this summer.    Perhaps nobody in the entire state had a bigger summer in terms of getting the attention of college recruiters than Lake. Playing with Select Basketball out of Idaho, the Tualatin senior point guard was dynamic with his ability to both score and get teammates involved and was able to exhibit plenty of leadership skills. He went into the summer with one scholarship offer (Weber State) and afterwards, he's at six and counting. That all said, a good case could be made for Lake to make it up to the top of the Class of 2026 rankings in the next update.     Despite helping lead the Cowboys to a sizzling win-loss record and a trophy at the 4A state tournament, Lowenbach still remained a bit under the radar but that's no longer the case after AAU and June ball. The rising senior is now up to 6-foot-9 and especially with the Cowboys in June, he was given the opportunity to do just about everything on the court. His ability to shoot from deep, make reads and passes to teammates has earned him the nickname "Baby Jokic" and he was recently rewarded with his first D-II offer from Western Oregon.     The development of Lariz continues. The 6-foot-5 rising senior at Forest Grove has always been intriguing as a shooter with size but he this summer he could also put the ball on the floor to create a bit as well as utilize his height to be finish more plays inside. That hasn't taken anything away from his sweet lefty stroke from deep and he ranks as one of the top shooters in the state. The high-academic standout has already earned a roster spot offer from hometown Pacific.     A tremendous all-around athlete having made it the state track meet in the triple jump, Curvy showed this summer that he's more than just a run and jump kind of player. While he still dazzled observers with those natural abilities, both with finishes in transition as well on the boards and defensively, the rising Jesuit senior was able to showcase improved offensive skills including a nice touch from distance. He'll be a critical part of Jesuit's lineup in 2025-26.     One of the pleasant surprises to us this summer was getting the opportunity to watch Freeman in action. The rising Lake Oswego senior proved himself as a problem for defenders on the court as he was incredibly difficult to contain off the dribble and getting to the basket. The 6-foot-1 lead guard could not only make plays for himself but also kick it out to open shooters as well. With his play both with Lake Oswego and ProSkills, he's firmly on the radar of small college coaching staffs.
