2026 Prospects: Best Available in Minnesota

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Who are the best available prospects in the state of Minnesota right now? We give you a quick rundown and conversation at each position!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Point Guard</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>If you are looking for a ball handler there are plenty in Minnesota to look into. That starts with [player_tooltip player_id='1550877' first='Jayden' last='Moore'] who was just offered by Townson State and has more teams looking to jump into the mix in that low and mid major area. Moore can start for one of those teams quickly and I think somebody is going to be very happy to add him. And schools have offered Witt and Gustafson, who can shoot it and run a team (they've both won championships in the past half year). </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1550877' first='Jayden' last='Moore'] of Hopkins/Team Herro-[program_tooltip program_id='2075431' first='D1' last='Minnesota']</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2118449' first='Mason' last='Witt'] of Alexandria/[program_tooltip program_id='2455790' first='Howard' last='Pulley']</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1560798' first='Lucas' last='Gustafson'] of Mankato East/[program_tooltip program_id='2075672' first='Minnesota' last='Fury']</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1560851' first='Hamze' last='Yusuf'] of Eden Prairie/Hoop Habits</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2823917' first='Gunner' last='Liebl'] of Dawson-Boyd/Southwest MN Stars</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Combo Guard</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Mitchell has been a shooter, Mitchell has been a lead guard, I know USD offered after MBCA Camp and I think he can certainly play at that level. Kirsch could certainly play D2, Boschee and Christensen both have D2 options, and Sonju might have just led 17u in scoring. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1560868' first='Joseph' last='Mitchell III'] of Cretin-Derham Hall/[program_tooltip program_id='2455790' first='Howard' last='Pulley']</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1560741' first='Will' last='Kirsch'] of Waconia/[program_tooltip program_id='2455790' first='Howard' last='Pulley']</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1560797' first='Jaxon' last='Boschee'] of Bemidji/[program_tooltip program_id='2455790' first='Howard' last='Pulley']-Team Starks</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2119642' first='Avery' last='Christensen'] of Willmar/Southwest MN Stars</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1560769' first='Ethan' last='Sonju'] of Glencoe-Silver Lake/Minnesota Swish</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Shooting Guard</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>I would say Tian is the most talented shooting guard available. There is a lot there and I think he could have a big year. Frelix and Osteraas have picked up D2 options as they have shown they are that level of player. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1560835' first='Tian' last='Chatman'] of Totino-Grace/Team FSA</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1560839' first='Xavier' last='Frelix'] of Park Center/[program_tooltip program_id='2075685' first='Minnesota' last='Select']</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2119593' first='Lars' last='Osteraas'] of St. Thomas Academy/[program_tooltip program_id='2075672' first='Minnesota' last='Fury'] Reyes</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1560865' first='Nolan' last='Myren'] of Spring Lake Park/[program_tooltip program_id='2075672' first='Minnesota' last='Fury'] DeLo</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2115657' first='Gavin' last='Roderick'] of Alexandria/[program_tooltip program_id='2075496' first='Grassroots' last='Sizzle']</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Small Forward </strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Schroepfer, Miller and Lewis have all earned D2 college options and I think all three can help a team in a lot of way, albeit different ways. Nobles has the agility to be a versatile player on both ends and [player_tooltip player_id='2118474' first='Ethan' last='Martin'] might be the most consistently productive stat stuffer of all these guys. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1560747' first='Alex' last='Schroepfer'] of Eagan/[program_tooltip program_id='2075672' first='Minnesota' last='Fury']</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1886972' first='Amari' last='Nobles'] of Mankato East/Hoop Habits</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2118474' first='Ethan' last='Martin'] of Belle Plaine/Minnesota Swish</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1560744' first='Evan' last='Miller'] of DeLaSalle/[program_tooltip program_id='2455790' first='Howard' last='Pulley']</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1560795' first='Maddox' last='Lewis'] of Sartell/[program_tooltip program_id='2888391' first='Minnesota' last='Comets']</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Power Forward</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>We have a versatile but strong four man (Young), your old school power forward with explosion (Parker), your versatile up and comer (Lam), your long stretch four (Sanneh), and your high energy worker (Riewer). Take your pick of what you want! </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1560866' first='Camare'' last='Young'] of Apple Valley/[program_tooltip program_id='2455790' first='Howard' last='Pulley']</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2381759' first='Reggie' last='Parker'] of Rochester Mayo/MN Lace Up</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2860073' first='Brady' last='Lam'] of Wayzata/[program_tooltip program_id='2075685' first='Minnesota' last='Select']</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2120491' first='Graham' last='Sanneh'] of East Ridge/Hoop Habiits</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2175436' first='Austin' last='Riewer'] of Bemidji/[program_tooltip program_id='2888391' first='Minnesota' last='Comets']</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Center</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The fives. I think Fahning has a chance to take another step while Tommy is the kind of five that reminds me of the type of game that Robert Vaihola (minus three inches) will play for Minnesota. Miller might be the best inside-out guy, Cramble will get you ten boards, and I think Piper could have the highest ceiling. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1560749' first='Colin' last='Piper'] of White Bear Lake/Team FSA</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2120492' first='Ethan' last='Miller'] of Zumbrota-Mazeppa/[program_tooltip program_id='2075672' first='Minnesota' last='Fury'] DeLo</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1560847' first='Tommy' last='Shunmugavelu'] of Wayzata/[program_tooltip program_id='2075672' first='Minnesota' last='Fury']</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2119596' first='Cooper' last='Fahning'] of Eden Prairie/Real Phenom</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2120494' first='Cameron' last='Cramble'] of Irondale/[program_tooltip program_id='2075672' first='Minnesota' last='Fury']</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
