<p>What 2027 wings elevated their stocks the most in the latest PHI rankings? Here are a few of the top players that elevated their rankings!</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2125619' first='Dshaun' last='Bolden'] (Oswego East)</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Bolden made another big move up the board after a strong showing in June with Oswego East along with his play at The EXPO Illinois. Bolden brings size, athleticism, and physicality on the win. Explosive athlete that gets downhill throwing down big dunks. Burst off the bounce and despite having a different shot release he gets it off high and makes them from mid-range and three.</p>

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2860144' first='Ryan' last=''] Howard (Alton)</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Howard is a wing that we have been impressed with for a while. The Alton product is a plus shooter with a smooth release. He is money off the catch! That is definitely the strength of his game. Plus wing defender that can be disruptive on that side of the ball. Look forward to see how his game continues to round out this season.</p>

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2749990' first='Zane' last='Schneider'] (Lemont)</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Schneider brings it game in and game out! The Lemont shooting guard is a plus shooter that was looked at as more of a specialist a year ago, but he has really made strides as an all-around player. Tough downhill takes for scores in the paint and trips to the foul line.</p>

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2532358' first='Zaire' last='Green'] (Whitney Young)</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Green is primed to be a key contributor for the Dolphins this season. When you look at Green's physical build, potential on the defensive end, and especially his spot up three point shooting he is going to be a major factor this season!</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2881313' first='Isaiah' last='Rogers'] (Bolingbrook)</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Rogers was the first breakout player of the summer early at the Riverside Brookfield event. He is a 6'5” wing that has a long and lanky frame. Fluid athlete with handles and can check multiple positions defensively. Best basketball is ahead of him!</p>

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2948455' first='[player_tooltip player_id='2411624' first='Laterryon' last='']' last='Lee'] (Prosser)</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>This 6'5” wing really popped at THE EXPO Illinois as a long and lanky small forward with athleticism. Quick second jump on the glass, finished out of the dunker spot, and we loved what he brought as a secondary passer making good decisions with the ball.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2925830' first='Elijah' last='Bell'] (Jacobs)</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Bell has nice size at 6'3” for the two guard position. He made shots from mid-range and three at a high level at THE EXPO Illinois. Did it off the dribble and off the catch. Quality passer as well making some exciting dishes.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2864914' first='Osiris' last='Bell'] (Kenwood)</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Bell is a wing that at 6'2” is a bucket getter. Slippery with the rock in his hands using his speed in the open floor which is where he really excels.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2829613' first='Danny' last='Ruffin'] (Homewood Flossmoor)</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Ruffin is going to be a key player for HF this season. The 6'0” well built two guard brings plus athleticism and burst to the table. Can shoot it pretty well from three as well.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2963262' first='Gavin' last='Rahm'] (Trenton Wesclin)</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>We got our first look at Rahm in recent weeks as the 6'3” guard attended the Pure Sweat Fall Camp. Strong combo that was vocal on the defensive side of the ball. He has some shake as a ball handler that is quick off the bounce in short areas. Clean looking jumper from mid-range, solid passer with instincts, and plays with a high-motor.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2125671' first='Nojus' last='Venckus'] (Lockport)</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Venckus lit up the nets when we saw him with Lockport over the summer. Mixed in threes, acrobatic layups, and soft touch finishes against quality competition.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2963269' first='Josh' last='Hendrickx'] (Moline)</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>At 6'4” you are looking at a small forward with size that can really shoot the ball from three along with mixing in some straight line takes.</p>
