Rankings Update: 2027 Small Forwards

Today, we'll take a look at the small forward position, as we continue our positional breakdowns for the Class of 2027.   In all, 28 Small Forwards appeared in our rankings update, including our top ranked small forward and the #4 overall prospect, Brewster Academy's [player_tooltip player_id='1682357' first='Markus' last='Kerr'].    Below are five small forwards of note from the latest rankings update.    Owusu-Aduomi, out of the Tilton School in New Hampshire, checks in at #11 among the small forwards and #44 overall. Owusu-Aduomi is a big time athlete that does a great job of making plays in space, on both ends of the floor. He covers ground quickly with long strides and uses his length to be disruptive in passing lanes, while also proving to be a strong rebounder in traffic. Offensively, he's capable of getting into his mid-range game off one or two bounce, does a nice job of elevating into his shot, and also shows the ability to attack the rim for loud finishes when he can get downhill.     Pitt, out of the Brunswick School in Connecticut, checks in at #24 among the small forwards and #127 overall. Pitt has adjusted nicely to the NEPSAC, proving to be a versatile defender that uses his athleticism to his advantage when pressing, in passing lanes, and as an on-ball defender. He's an athletic finisher in transition, does a nice job of moving without the basketball, and has really improved the consistency of his perimeter jumper. Above all, his activity level and willingness to give up his body, on both ends of the floor, stands out every time he takes the court.     Reardon, out of the St. Paul's School in New Hampshire, checks in at #25 among the small forwards and #135 overall. Reardon is another prospect that has made a smooth transition to the NEPSAC, showing the ability to score it in multiple ways, while also making a big time impact on the defensive glass. The sturdy, 6'5" wing does a great job of using his strength to rebound in traffic, while also showing the mobility needed to guard on the perimeter. Offensively, he's an instinctive cutter that has proven to be a big time shot maker from behind the arc in catch and shoot situations.     Udeh, out of Phillips Academy Andover in Massachusetts, checks in at #29 among the small forwards and #147 overall. Udeh has a college ready frame and the ability to impact a game on both ends of the floor. Defensively, he does a nice job of moving his feet in space, while also using his strength to keep opposing guards off their lines as drivers. Offensively, he can make shots from behind the arc in catch and shoot situations, while also showing the ability to finish around the rim with athleticism. Off the ball, he's an instinctive cutter and willing ball mover.     Arthur, out of Hollis-Brookline High School in New Hampshire, checks in at #32 among the small forwards and #163 overall. Arthur has had a strong start to his season, averaging 17.4 points per game while helping Hollis-Brookline get off to a 5-0 start. The lefty is a floor spacer that does a great job of moving without the basketball and is consistently shot ready on the catch. He makes good decisions with the ball in his hands, can operate as a secondary ball-handler in the half-court, and has some creativity as a finisher around the rim. He's quickly established himself as one of the top scorers in the NHIAA, regardless of class.
