2027 Rankings Update: Class AAAA New Names to Know

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>First group of new names to know in the junior class from the Class AAAA level. These are from the first four sections of AAAA.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2834084' first='Kingland' last='Adeosun'] of Stillwater (6'6, PF). This is a player that I think has the potential to blossom into a prospect over the next 12 months.&nbsp; He's grown 2-3 inches the last few years, has face up ability to attack size and get down hill, but also the frame to play in the paint.&nbsp; Scored 12-13 a game this year for the Ponies and has the potential for a big senior year.&nbsp; Look forward to seeing him play against other good 17u players his size this spring&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2835671' first='Max' last='DuBore'] of Prior Lake (5'10, PG).&nbsp; Max is a tough player with speed and good court sense that made a lot of good reads the five times we saw Prior Lake this year.&nbsp; He was the best player on the floor when the Lakers beat Farmington with his 18 points and eight assists.&nbsp; Playing next to Thompson next year should work great as both can create, run the offense and knock down shots.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2140606' first='Ethan' last='McGrath'] of Eastview (6'3, SG).&nbsp; A player from the Comets Shootout that really stood out to me was McGrath.&nbsp; Defended in good spots with toughness, moved the basketball to the right spots, hit open shots and overall was a strong athlete that was able to physically out-play opponents.&nbsp; He's also a very good punter prospect in football as well. A player to watch with Fury Goring.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2140615' first='Gavin' last='Stuart'] of Lakeville South (6'1, SG).  Stuart was solid all season for the Cougars as their top junior and it was his big shooting performance in the first half of the state tournament game with Chaska that put him on the map.  Scored six points a game this year but hit two threes right away at state on his way to a 16 point game.  Should have a much bigger role next winter. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2353671' first='Derek' last='Thompson'] of East Ridge (6'5, PF).  Thompson is a player that I could see having a big season year making a big jump.  He had a really good weekend in Appleton as a physical and active player and this winter we saw him have a 13 and 13 game.  We could see a lot of double-doubles from Thompson next year with his effort, strong and agility. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
