<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>PF Alex Tanny (Wahlert Catholic)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A mobile, hyper-talented 6-7 forward, Tanny will be on the short list of players under consideration for the top spot in the 2029 rankings when they are first released sometime after the season. He's capable of scoring from anywhere on the floor, has great length and mobility, and can provide a ton of versatility on either end of the floor. He's averaging 11.3 points and 6.3 rebounds per game on 49-31-63 shooting splits so far in his freshman year.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>SG George Nelson (Nevada)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>An efficient 6-3 wing, Nelson has been really good so far in his career for the Cubs, averaging 14.7 points, 3.8 rebounds, 1.7 assists, and 2.3 steals per game. He's shooting just under 54% from the floor, can step out and stretch the floor off the catch, and has shown some ability to attack hard closeouts off the dribble and get to the rim or the free-throw line. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>PG [player_tooltip player_id='2921064' first='Jacobi' last='Cofield'] (Sergeant Bluff-Luton)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A lightning-quick 6-0 guard with great handles and vision, Cofield has come off the bench to give the Warriors some playmaking and shot creation. He's averaging 5.8 points, 2.0 rebounds, and 2.1 assists per game on 54-40-89 shooting splits. His speed can be a game changer on both ends of the floor.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>SF [player_tooltip player_id='2977142' first='Jordan' last='Hartman'] (Maquoketa)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Hartman is a 6-0 wing who can score from all three levels, averaging 8.0 points on 45-50-53 shooting splits. He moves well without the ball in his hands, shoots it well off the catch, and can get to the rim off the dribble. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>SF Tommy Spieker (North Polk)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A 6-2 wing with size and length, Spieker has been a key contributor for the Comets on both ends of the floor, averaging 5.9 points, 5.8 rebounds, 2.2 assists, and 1.0 steals on 50% shooting.
