2027 Prospect Rankings: The Class AAAA Stock Risers

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Class AAAA talents that have went from players to prospects in the past 4-5 months!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2140576' first='Carson' last='Deibele'] of Monticello (6'4).  At 6'4 and 190 pounds Carson is set up to be one of the elite three sport athletes in the state of Minnesota next year.  He pitches, he's a football prospect Prep Red Zone speaks of, and he scored 21 points a game this winter leading the Magic to 22 wins.  A physical player with great body control that is a leader in everything he does. Type of guy that might be too busy to play AAU! </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2418241' first='Joseph' last='Jacobs'] of Park Center (6'1).  Jacobs is an athlete that you need to know for the upcoming 2026-27 year.  He is a football prospect to know that runs with the best, has great bounce, and those things translate as a basketball player.  Scored 18-19 points a game this season and is a talent to watch at 17u. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2362161' first='Matthew' last='Johnson'] of St. Louis Park (6'4). A shooter/scorer with the ability to explode and score in bulk, Johnson is in a great spot to be one of the top stock risers of the entire 17u season.  He has range, the agility to attack and get to the rim or attack and lift into a pull-up, and the confidence in himself and from his HS/AAU coach to be a main option.  A top 30 level prospect in his class at least. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='3599705' first='Tony' last='Jordan'] of Buffalo (6'1).  Steady, smart, skilled and dependable.  That is [player_tooltip player_id='3599705' first='Tony' last='Jordan'], another Jordan that is a consistent player for the Buffalo Bison and [program_tooltip program_id='2821775' first='Buffalo' last='Legacy'].  Jordan scored eight points a game this winter and can play both guard spots. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2140693' first='Simon' last='Winkels'] of Duluth East (6'6).  A player that when I looked up results on a night in the winter I would see….. Four steals, hit a couple threes, led the team with 16 points, etc etc.  Scored 11 a game this year and is playing with [program_tooltip program_id='2078859' first='Starks' last='Elite']. Listed at 6'6 now which means he's grown a couple inches in the past 18 months as well. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2880161' first='Micah' last='Wiskus'] of Roseville (6'1).  Wiskus has the potential to be one of the best senior scorers in the metro next year.  He put up 19 points a game as a junior and has one of the prettier releases you will see. Micah has a chance to take a really big step and there is an outside shot that he could earn not just a good spot, but potentially work his way into a partial someplace.  As he learns how to playmake within the framework, that is where he could really become a strong all around player. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
