2026 Prospect Update: Class AA Stock Risers

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Players in the senior class that we think have really stepped forward to have a big final high school season. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1213758' first='Andrew' last='Coleman'] of Holy Family (6'6). Coleman has taken a nice step forward scoring 18 points and when I have looked on, Coleman has really matured as a player.&nbsp; He's a 6'6 player that can shoot it, he's had a number of multiple threes made games, but we've seen him score off the ball more, we have seen him finish through contact more, and we have seen Coleman score in smart ways off the ball. Committed to Gustavus.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2118459' first='Carson' last='McMichael'] of Blake (6'1).&nbsp; They say that want shooters at the next level well….. Not many guys are shooting it like Carson right now.&nbsp; Carson just had 46 points in his team's win over Watertown-Mayer just last night!&nbsp; And earlier this year he knocked out 13 threes in one game beating Camden.&nbsp; Carson is scoring 23 points a game and is capable of totally flipping games on its head as we saw him do that a few times with Select last 17u season.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1628770' first='Zachary' last='Murphy'] of Howard Lake-Waverly-Winsted (6'4).&nbsp; Murphy is a strong player at 6'4 that battles in the paint and is grabbing eight rebounds a game.&nbsp; Zach can hit a jumper but good with body to the basket and good scoring around the basket with his size.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2486899' first='J'Marion' last='Sanders'] of Minneapolis North (5'9). Sanders is known for his football recruit status and highlights but this tough and explosive guard is a tough player to deal with on the basketball court too.&nbsp; Sanders has led North with nearly 20 points a game this year and he's capable of taking a game over with his a couple threes, a couple attacks, and some impressive scores t the rim finishing through contact.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Jacob Stiele of Twin Cities Academy (6'4).  The numbers speak for themselves: 28.4 points, nine rebounds, four assists, three steals and two blocks a game.  Wait, not those numbers, those numbers are good but I mean the shooting splits for a 6'4 wing: 58.4 fg/57.4 3pt/75.0 ft. Sure people will talk about his opportunity to shoot a lot but when you are making over 50 percent at the arc it doesn't matter if it's contested, not contested, or all alone, if you make over half of your threes at 6'4 during a game, it's big. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2447536' first='Jed' last='Streed'] of Southwest Christian (6'6).&nbsp; [player_tooltip player_id='2447536' first='Jed' last='Streed'] is really opening eyes as a prospect for the same reasons he opened eyes to us last 17u season: he is long, active, mobile, and quick for his size.&nbsp; Streed's activity is a key reason that his team is a top ten team in Class AA.&nbsp; He is scoring 17 points a game pairing with the 21 a game from [player_tooltip player_id='2845973' first='Jack' last='Burke'] and the pair works well together.&nbsp; Streed has great defensive potential because of his size, length, activity, and lateral mobility.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
