2027 Sleeper Prospects, Part 1

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The rising Senior class is a deep one and there are a ton of quality prospects across the state who project to be collegiate prospects. Here's a look at some 2027s who are overlooked but have the potential to earn scholarships over the next year.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2389580"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6a14b92c9793d"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">O'Hara has good size as a shooter and can get his shot off quickly. Likely to play the 2 or 3 spot at the next level, Kamden made 10 3s in a game this past season and shot 43% from range over the course of his Junior campaign. Primarily a catch and shoot player, O'Hara has the size to guard multiple positions and also kicked in over 4 rebounds per game for the Wildcats.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2434653"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6a14b92c97a07"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Once a top 30 prospect in the class, Horn missed the entire 2025-26 season after back surgery. Now back close to 100%, Asher is a big wing who excels at getting downhill and getting into the paint. As a Sophomore, Horn was the leading scorer and rebounder at Dunbar and should be in the mix for 11th region Player of the Year this season if he's able to return to his 2025 form. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2125709"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6a14b92c97a76"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Holden was one of the top scoring Juniors in the 9th region this past season and should be in the mix to be the top Senior this year. After averaging 17 points per game this year, Smith could see his average tick up a couple more points if he shoots the ball better from three in his Senior season. Holden already does a good job of getting to the rim and finishing and can also get to the free throw line consistently over the course of the game. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2560652"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6a14b92c97ae1"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Adair County needs to replace quite a bit of scoring from this past season and Feese is capable of stepping up and helping fill that void. Samuel is a talented scorer who has shown through AAU that he can score the ball well. Likely to be the starting point guard next season for Coach Breeze, Feese is going to likely see a big increase in his shot volume and could go from 3 points per game to 15+ per game. I think he can play at the college level.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
