2026 Rankings: SG/SF Stock Risers

With 355 players, there are bound to be players that saw their rankings drop, but also players that saw their stock rise.    There were 57 new players and here are some of the stock risers. We actually had probably close to 30 players that saw their stock rise but     <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Here are the top 9 SG/SF stock risers since March:</h2>   [player_tooltip player_id='2623495' first='Riley' last='Haggerty'] Cactus Shadows +24   A good sized combo guard is due to a breakout season. The lefty shoots it easily from mid to the three point line off the dribble or catch but he can get to the basket with his tighter handle or fall away from his defender. He has a cerebral approach to the game.   [player_tooltip player_id='2367880' first='Saleem' last='Gakiza'] Hillcrest Prep +23   A strong framed guard/wing is a bully getting downhill. He rebounds well in his area and he keeps improving his game as a perimeter shooter. He is making his threes and mid-range pull-ups at a higher rate and still brings that toughness to the court.   [player_tooltip player_id='2325982' first='Stetson' last='Rowley'] Phhoenix Prep Hood (Pictured) +21   A big summer and fall for Stetson is moving up college boards quickly. He has elite size for a wing combined with great skill. He grew a legit three inches and has become more athletic in the last year or so. He can still shoot it easily from mid to the three and uses his size inside to score or rebound.   [player_tooltip player_id='1555149' first='Bryson' last='Krueger II'] Desert Ridge +12   An athletic wing with incredible size and length has played well at the Southwest Camp and recent EXPO. He is shooting the ball better than he did a year ago and he still makes his money with defending multiple positions, rebounding and scoring in transition.   [player_tooltip player_id='2674196' first='Kaleb' last='Bowen'] Mountain Ridge +11   One of the bigger wing forwards showed you flashes of what he can be at Section-7. He moves well from end to end and he can handle it to create his own offense. He shoots it at a good clip from the three point line and looks to breakout like Jaiden Thompson did last year.   [player_tooltip player_id='1620346' first='Josh' last='McManaway'] McClintock +7   Another who played well in summer and recently at the Southwest Basketball Camp. He has grown a little and the bigger scoring guard shoots it at a high level. He is very effective from mid-range and comes with deep three point range. He also rebounds better then most guards.   [player_tooltip player_id='2534794' first='Damann' last='L Young II'] Phhoenix Prep +2   A hyper athletic wing forward can score and defend multiple positions. He grew maybe an inch or so but he got more athletic in the last year and he is steadily improving his skill. He shoots it at a higher rate from the perimeter and brings real energy.   [player_tooltip player_id='2432466' first='RJ' last='Detroy'] Arcadia +1   A versatile wing forward can play and defend many positions. He handles it well like a guard and has the perimeter skill to shoot it from mid to the three point line plus he can post up and go to work with post footwork and feel. He will be relied on more this season.   [player_tooltip player_id='2280481' first='Cameron' last='Connell'] Chaparral +1   A sharp shooting guard/wing had a good summer and Section-7. He was one of the main reasons they made a deep run and qualified for the weekend. He shoots it easily from the three point line and from mid plus has enough quickness with the ball to get downhill.
