2026 Rankings: Stock Risers Outside Top-75

Check out some stock risers from this update to the 2026 class rankings who fall just outside the top 75. A lot of these guys have some unique physical traits, while others possess some intangibles that take their game to the next level.    A hard-working guard who leads with his voice and his actions on the court. He can play both guard spots, but is better off the ball. Shoots it at a good clip from long range and can really catch a heater at times. Plays very physically on both ends, diving for loose balls, battling on the defensive end, and looking for any chance to break out and push the ball.     Has length and can shoot the leather off the ball. Those two factors make him an intriguing prospect, but he's also shown that he can do it at a consistently high level, averaging right around 20 points, six rebounds, two assists, a steal, and a block over the last two seasons. At 6-foot-6, he's shown some real deadeye ability from distance and can knock down shots with hands right in his face. Also a kid who will play off that outside shot and find space closer in.     Talented wing prospect who can fill up stat sheets and chip in across the board. At 6-foot-7, he provides some defensive versatility, moves well on the perimeter, can block shots, and has the strength to battle at times on the interior. Really creative with his footwork and paint attacks, and can hit from various gathers, angles, and distances. Also can be a threat from three, especially when spotting up in transition or in the early offense.     Swerdlik is a creative ballhandler who can get to his spots well and does a good job feeling out defenders and finding gaps to shoot in. Very good 3-point shooter who has shown a much more expanded game this spring and summer, and is a capable passer who has good vision and awareness on both ends of the floor.     Sheppard is a super athletic guard who will attack the hoop, challenge defenders, and finish above the rim. He's an opportunistic defender who will get picks on the ball and look to get the break going. Also does a good job helping out on the glass with his big bounce, and can chip in some playmaking as well.     He's a strong guard who plays at his own pace, can use his body and some creative fakes and hesitations to get by his man. Will knock down the midrange shot and some shorter shots around the paint with good efficiency, but can step out and hit the three-ball when given space. Defends hard and can take on some bigger guys defensively with his big body and solid base. He's an unselfish player too, and does a good job at taking what's there offensively.     Jones is a big-bodied wing who works well inside the arc, both using his physicality and a good first step to attack the hoop. Does well playing out of the midpost and mixing it up between backdowns and facing up. Strong kid on the glass too, and should be in store for a solid senior season.     He's a guard who can score the rock in bunches and has the ability to score in creative ways around the paint. Does equally well going off one foot or two, with various footwork and gathers, mixing up the timing of shots, and playing with different speeds when he gets in close. Can hit the three at a good clip and makes some great reads defensively off the ball to pick off long passes, and can turn up the pressure on the ball.
