Prospect Watch: 2027 Stock Risers Who Took a Leap This Season

As the offseason progresses into summer periods, a number of 2027 prospects have clearly separated themselves through growth, production, and impact. Whether it was expanded roles, improved efficiency, or stepping up in big moments, these guards and wings are trending in the right direction heading into the spring and summer circuit.   [player_tooltip player_id='2294546' first='Zack' last='Dawson'] | G | @ZackDawson305   Dawson's game has tightened up across the board. He plays with a calm pace, understands how to get to his spots, and has become more efficient operating in the midrange. The scoring production is there, but what stands out more is his ability to control tempo and make the right reads. He's evolving into a reliable offensive piece that can run stretches of a game.   [player_tooltip player_id='2810621' first='Christian' last='Fuller'] | G | 2027 | Victory Christian | @ChristianF_11   Fuller's development has been steady and noticeable. He's more confident as a scorer, picking his spots better while still competing on the defensive end. Playing within a deep rotation has actually helped his efficiency — he's not forcing action and is making winning plays. His trajectory points toward a bigger role moving forward.   [player_tooltip player_id='2254268' first='Donovan' last='Swain'] | G | 2027 | Coral Glades | @1of1donovan   Swain brings a natural scoring feel that translates every time out. He can shoot it, create off the bounce, and plays with a competitive edge that shows up on both ends. His size and athleticism allow him to guard multiple spots, and he's becoming more consistent in making the right play instead of just the tough one.   [player_tooltip player_id='2294526' first='Damari' last='Foster'] | G | Stranahan | @Damari_Foster1   Foster carried momentum into the postseason and backed it up. He's comfortable scoring at all three levels and looks more in control as a playmaker. As his role continues to expand, his ability to balance scoring with facilitating will be key — but the tools are there for a strong next step.   [player_tooltip player_id='2397093' first='Anthony' last='Brown'] | F | 2027 | Boca Ciega | @anthonycbrown11   Brown put together one of the more complete seasons in the class. At 6-6, he's physical, athletic, and versatile enough to impact the game inside and out. He can attack downhill, finish through contact, and defend across multiple positions. After leading Boca Ciega to a deep run, he's firmly on the radar as a matchup problem.   [player_tooltip player_id='2397097' first='Jeremiah' last='Brown'] | G | 2027 | Sunlake | @thatguyjerm2027   Brown plays bigger than his size because of how hard he competes. He's a physical guard who defends at a high level, pressures the ball, and rebounds well for his position. Offensively, he continues to produce, but it's his defensive presence and motor that consistently shift momentum.   [player_tooltip player_id='2397089' first='Eric' last='Turral'] | G | 2027 | FAMU DRS | @ericturral20   Turral has developed into a more complete perimeter guard. He can operate within structure or create when needed, using his handle to break down defenders. His scoring is more controlled now, and his two-way impact is starting to show more consistently.   [player_tooltip player_id='2827196' first='Shannon' last='McArthur'] | F | 2027 | Santa Fe Catholic | @ykshannon_   McArthur continues to carve out value through effort and physicality. He rebounds, defends, and finishes through contact, all the things that translate to winning. As his offensive skill set expands, his role should continue to grow.   Khylen Eccles | G | 2027 | Pensacola | @KhylenEccles   Eccles took on more responsibility this season and handled it well. Leading a younger group, he showed improved confidence as a scorer and decision-maker. He's got sneaky athleticism and continues to develop into a primary option with upside.   [player_tooltip player_id='2194974' first='Dominick' last='Walsh'] | G | 2027 | Northside Christian | @DominickWalsh22   Walsh continues to prove he's the type of guard winning programs need. He plays unselfish, keeps the ball moving, and consistently makes the right read without forcing the action. His impact goes beyond scoring — he controls tempo, gets teammates involved, and understands how to keep an offense organized. He gets downhill when needed, finds space off the catch, and has shown growing confidence as a perimeter shooter..   Abimael Belleus | G | 2027 | Evans | @abelleus10   Belleus was a key piece on a deep postseason run. He plays with energy, attacks the game with confidence, and consistently produces. Leading his team in scoring while contributing on the glass, he's one of those guards who brings toughness every night.   [player_tooltip player_id='2948415' first='Dylan' last='Janov'] | G | 2027 | Coral Glades | @dyl305   Janov's junior season was productive and efficient. He can create his own shot, knock down perimeter looks, and finish in traffic despite his size. His ability to generate offense makes him a tough cover, and he's continuing to build consistency as a lead guard.
