2028 Rankings: PG/SG Stock Risers

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>With 255 players, there are bound to be players that saw their rankings drop, but also players that saw their stock rise.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>There were 29 new players and here are some of the stock risers. We actually had 35 players that saw their stock rise but&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Here are the top 9 PG/SG stock risers since September:</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2734770' first='Cayden' last='VanHouten'] <strong>Eastmark (Pictured)</strong> +75</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A decent sized scoring guard made a big leap since last season. He is getting more playing time as the season goes on and will come into the game and fire away from the three point line with a sturdy frame. He is also a smart passer. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2724507' first='Preston' last='Bauer'] <strong>Notre Dame Prep</strong> +63</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>One of the breakout scoring guards of 5A may be Preston. He is another knockdown three point shooter who has great size and picture perfect shooting stroke. He is best off of the catch and will fire away with a super quick trigger. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='3025654' first='Spencer' last='Lowe'] <strong>Red Mountain</strong> +54</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Another breakout star but in 6A has been Spencer. I saw him briefly in the fall and then during the Thanksgiving week and he looks even more confident scoring the ball. He likes to shoot it from the three point line but he can drive it and pull-up from mid-range. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2548083' first='Austin' last='Starr'] <strong>Pinnacle</strong> +20</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A junior varsity standout who is growing quickly. The southpaw is one of the better deeper three point shooters in the class with the ultimate green light. He leads the way nightly and lights up the scoreboard from all three levels with a good feel. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2552786' first='Sencere' last='Sandez'] <strong>Deer Valley </strong>+16</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A scoring combo lead guard can play on or off the ball seamlessly. He can make plays for his teammates plus scores it from the three point line or drive past his defenders. He plays the passing lanes well and will most likely get action on varsity next season. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2747422' first='Isaiah' last='Swan'] <strong>Brophy Prep</strong> +14</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Another top end junior varsity player leads the way. He is super quick on both ends of the court suffocating his opponents on defense and bursting past them to score at the basket. He likes the floater game and will also make plays for his teammates. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2266384' first='Aiden' last='Williams'] <strong>Brophy Prep</strong> +13</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The sophomore was getting the nod to start without Sharper playing early on this season and is still starting with Sharper back. He is a very confident ball handler and will distribute the ball on time but he can score. He has a pretty looking jumper from mid to the three point line with speed.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2194803' first='Pierce' last='Harrington'] <strong>Saguaro</strong> +11</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Probably the top true combo guard on the list has come out of the gate on fire. He had some huge games in California at the Damien Classic and scores it all ways with mid-range pull-ups, threes and nifty drives in the lane with his elusive handle. He can also make a play for a teammate. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2692801' first='Thomas' last='Sorenson'] <strong>Basha </strong>+10</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>One of the top junior varsity teams in the state is led by a strong core of underclassmen and Thomas is at the forefront of it. He scores it easily from all levels but really shoots the ball well from the arc. He can get downhill and rebounds well for a guard. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
