<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>With the latest 2028 rankings update, these players are making a strong case for their rise and it's showing on the varsity floor. Through earned minutes and growing trust from their coaches, they're proving they can compete against older, stronger competition. The growth is real, the impact is noticeable and the trajectory is pointing up. These are the young names you'll want to know now before everyone else catches on.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2823752"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-695ece741362d"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Cabrera is starting to put it all together, and it shows every time he steps on the floor for Arrupe Jesuit. With one of the smoothest jumpers around, he's becoming a steady scoring threat while expanding the rest of his game. His confidence is growing, his reads are quicker and he's making sharper, more decisive plays that directly turn into points. As the team's third leading scorer at 9 points per game on an efficient 42 percent, Cabrera is proving he belongs. The momentum is building, the game is slowing down for him and his rise in the rankings feels like it's just getting started</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2828558"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-695ece74136e8"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Alfonso has wasted no time making an impact since making the jump to varsity at D'Evelyn. While the numbers may look modest at 4.6 points per game, the value he brings goes far beyond the box score. He's a true shooter who can stretch the floor, knock down shots from deep,and punish defenses when they lose track of him. Alfonso is learning how to find his spots, play within the flow and score efficiently. As his confidence continues to grow, expect his production to rise right along with it</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2824552"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-695ece7413771"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Morris is starting to take off at Skyline, and the impact is becoming impossible to ignore. Averaging 12.3 points per game, he's emerging as a go to scorer who can change the feel of a game in a hurry. He's a confident shooter who rises up over defenders, creates clean looks and attacks with purpose. Whether it's knocking down jumpers, scoring through contact, or heating up from multiple spots on the floor, Morris is proving he can get buckets in a variety of ways and he's just getting started</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2980256"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-695ece74137f2"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Baker is quickly making his presence felt for Regis, and his size alone changes the game. At 6'6, he's a real problem on both ends of the floor, using improving footwork and technique to keep opponents off the block while attacking the glass for boards and blocks. Defensively the upside is obvious and offensively he's growing more comfortable with the ball in his hands, and once he gets a head of steam, he's tough to slow down. The combination of size, effort and developing skill set makes Baker a name to keep circling as his game continues to rise<br></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2842597"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-695ece7413878"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Reker has a confidence that is growing, and it's showing in his production and overall feel for the game. Averaging 8.2 points per game, he's becoming more assertive and comfortable making plays. He flashes to the ball, shows solid ball skills and isn't afraid to put his head down and drive to the hole. The trust from coaches and teammates is clearly there, and it's allowing him to play freer and more decisive. As that confidence continues to build, Reker's impact is only going to keep climbing</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->

Through earned minutes and growing trust from their coaches, they're proving they can compete against older, stronger competition.
