<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The 2027 rankings update was filled with so many stock risers, that one article wasn't enough. Here are more stock-risers from the 2027 rankings update.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2201969' first='Tahir' last='Conner'], 6'2 CG Elizabeth</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Conner moved up 10 spots in the update and will have the opportunity to move up even higher. The 6'2 guard uses his handle to blow by his defender off the bounce and finishes strong around the rim. Conner can also score in the mid-range and sets his feet before he shoots. He works hard on the defensive end and moves well without the ball in his hands. Conner's ability to play on and off the ball is something that will help his stock throughout the course of the season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2202029' first='Luka' last='Kuqo'], 6'9 PF/C Bergen Catholic</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Kuqo jumped nine spots in the update as he is one of the top post prospects in the class. The 6'9 post knows how to get position down low and has a nice touch around the basket. Kuqo can also put the ball on the floor and has a high release on his jumper. He skies for rebounds on both ends of the floor and influences a ton of shots around the rim. Kuqo is a skilled post prospect who should put his full game on display this season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2628248' first='Terrance' last='Jamison'], 6'5 SG/SF St. Benedict's Prep</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Jamison went up eight spots in the update after a strong showing this fall. The 6'5 wing has a good first step, which he uses to get into the lane off the bounce and finishes strong above the rim. Jamison rarely forces shots in the half court and moves well without the ball in his hands. He has the length to defend multiple positions on the floor and is an underrated rebounder.
