With 355 players, there are bound to be players that saw their rankings drop, but also players that saw their stock rise.    There were 39 new players and here are some of the stock risers. We actually had 70 players that saw their stock rise but     <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Here are the top 9 PF/C stock risers since September:</h2>   [player_tooltip player_id='2764046' first='Malachi' last='Jones'] Gilbert +88   Like [player_tooltip player_id='2883785' first='Ethan' last='Sang'], Malachi was another stud JV player last season with the double transfer rule but is on varsity now breaking out. He has decent size with good skill and can play from inside and out. He shoots it from the three point line and works well inside the paint with good footwork and a huge motor to rebound.   [player_tooltip player_id='2628886' first='Austin' last='Cooper'] Willow Canyon +73   A power forward with a big time motor. He will play multiple positions on defense as he moves really well from end to end with his quick twitch, length and athleticism. He rebounds better than most and will score it with tough contested layups and dunks.   [player_tooltip player_id='2384135' first='Tyrell' last='Curry Jr'] West Point +60   The big man is moving better from end to end as he has leaned out a little and he is just scratching the surface. He will rebound at a good clip and wall up plus alter or block shots. He scores it inside the paint with layups and he is hard to move.   [player_tooltip player_id='2291967' first='Kyle' last='Bogart'] Highland (Pictured) +41   The top shot blocker on the list with great size as he grew an inch to six-foot nine. His length, timing and athleticism makes it hard to score on him. He scores with dunks as a true rim runner, hook shots and tough offensive rebound put backs.   [player_tooltip player_id='1150903' first='Rocket' last='Schwertley'] Brophy Prep +29   A thicker framed power forward with real skill and strength. He can step out and shoot the three plus works well inside with a nice touch from elbow and in. He plays thru contact and he is mentally tough for the tough buckets to score or get fouled.   [player_tooltip player_id='2418555' first='Aaron' last='Hubbard'] Paradise Honors +26   A long, lean and taller power forward is starting to turn the corner his senior season. He is a true late bloomer and moves well from end to end. He rebounds in his area and will block or alter shots at the basket. He scores it around the hoop and gives high effort.   [player_tooltip player_id='2387517' first='Jachin' last='Reynolds'] San Tan Charter +23   The top shot blocker in all of the small schools is definitely Reynolds. He has next level twitch and some serious springs to leap up and times it perfectly to block the shot. He will corral rebounds at a good rate and takes very long strides to the basket to score.   [player_tooltip player_id='2423942' first='Apollo' last='Jennings'] Chandler +22   A physical power forward with long arms and broader shoulders. He rebounds the ball at a high clip in and out of his area with a big motor and toughness. He scores it efficiently around the basket with layups and offensive rebound put backs.   [player_tooltip player_id='2674067' first='Tyson' last='Cutchen'] Highland +21   Another top of the food chain rebounder and shot blocker. He has sneaky quick bounce to spring up to dunk the ball or alter shots at the rim. He runs the floor well and he gives the Hawks two legit rim protectors and rim runner finishers.

With 355 players, there are bound to be players that saw their rankings drop, but also players that saw their stock rise.
