<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>There are a lot of players who could move up and down the ranking, and some have done just that heading into this latest update. The Class of 2028 is still molding itself, and in time, we will see more and more prospects rise. We take a look at the Top 5. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong> [player_tooltip player_id='1724358' first='Troy' last='Kaufusi'], Orem High School</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Troy is a dynamic guard with the ability to create separation when making moves to the basket. He gets separation by attacking the rim downhill, but he can also stop, use his balance, and maneuver around defenders when he can't get to the rim. His midrange game is elite. His quickness often makes defenders hesitant to guard him high, which allows him to turn to his outside game. Kaufusi is a good shooter, but he doesn't rely on shooting to score; it's just part of his arsenal.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://www.instagram.com/reel/DT_XKk6kctE/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_linku0026amp;igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"instagram","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-instagram wp-block-embed-instagram"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://www.instagram.com/reel/DT_XKk6kctE/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&amp;igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA== </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p> [player_tooltip player_id='2540166' first='Jayden' last='Cecil'], Utah Prep</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2540166' first='Jayden' last='Cecil'] is demonstrating a clear upward trajectory in his development, positioning him as a strong contender for a spot within the Top 100 rankings. His ability to effectively operate off screens is particularly noteworthy, as he displays versatility in attacking the basket based on the defensive positioning. He excels at getting low, utilizing skillful ball-handling to create openings for both drives to the basket and pull-up jump shots. Possessing the ideal size for a lead guard, Cecil's recruitment is experiencing a significant surge, solidifying his status as a highly sought-after, Division 1 prospect with numerous collegiate options.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://www.instagram.com/reel/DT3pdjykX7B/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_linku0026amp;igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"instagram","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-instagram wp-block-embed-instagram"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://www.instagram.com/reel/DT3pdjykX7B/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&amp;igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA== </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong> [player_tooltip player_id='2673550' first='Josh' last='Tolman'], Corner Canyon</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2673550' first='Josh' last='Tolman'] showcased his potential as a freshman last year, and during the grassroots season, he began to display different facets of his game. This year, he has truly matured, leading Corner Canyon High School in scoring with a diverse array of offensive skills. The most impressive aspect of his game is his improved shooting. He now has to be guarded by someone bigger, or he will bully them inside.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://www.instagram.com/p/DSvjN__Dq_E/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_linku0026amp;igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"instagram","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-instagram wp-block-embed-instagram"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://www.instagram.com/p/DSvjN__Dq_E/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&amp;igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA== </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong> [player_tooltip player_id='2450656' first='Oscar' last='Keegan'], East</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Keegan has significantly improved and is showcasing exceptional basketball skills. He elevates three-level scoring to a remarkable standard. His 6'8 frame allows him to dominate isolation plays at the top of the court, consistently getting his desired outcome, even with defensive assistance. Keegan's impressive back-to-the-basket game and ability to shoot over his shoulders make him a difficult player to guard, with few able to effectively contest his shots. He still has a high potential for future growth.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://www.instagram.com/reel/DTg49p9j89K/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_linku0026amp;igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"instagram","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-instagram wp-block-embed-instagram"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://www.instagram.com/reel/DTg49p9j89K/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&amp;igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA== </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p> [player_tooltip player_id='2450680' first='Jordan' last='Horsley'], Mountain Ridge</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Horsley has significantly impacted the game this season, showcasing exceptional shooting ability that stretches the floor effectively. He is widely regarded as the top shooter in his class and has the potential to be remembered as the best shooter to ever play for Mountain Ridge High School. Throughout the season, he has consistently delivered in crucial moments, demonstrating the ability to score effectively against taller opponents and create separation for his shots.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://www.instagram.com/reel/DS6uyhYArjX/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_linku0026amp;igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"instagram","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-instagram wp-block-embed-instagram"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://www.instagram.com/reel/DS6uyhYArjX/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&amp;igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA== </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed -->
