<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>It's still super early in their careers but the 2029 class have now had a full high school season as well as half of their 15u AAU seasons under their belts. There are still plenty of new names emerging and we even had a top 10 player transfer into the state since the last update. Here's a look at the highest ranked new names in the latest update.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["3635326"],"_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-6a179d787b99b"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">AJ played a minor role as a freshman at Douglass last season but he could be a major contributor to the Broncos starting as soon as next month. A big forward who can play inside or out, Rhodes has a high ceiling and could be the breakout player in Lexington next season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2609424"],"_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-6a179d787ba00"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Menifee County really struggled this past season but it wasn't due to a lack of effort on Brodey's part. Parks led his team in nearly every offensive category as a Freshman. A good shooter who is comfortable putting the ball on the deck, Brodey is going to score a lot of points before the end of his high school career.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2381778"],"_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-6a179d787ba35"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Hamilton saw limited varsity action last season for Scott County but expects an increased role as a Sophomore. The nephew of EKU head coach AW Hamilton, Jayden is a good shooter who has a solid all around skill set. If he can add bulk to his wiry frame, expect Hamilton to have a larger impact as a Sophomore.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["3651835"],"_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-6a179d787ba61"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Wes missed most of his Freshman season with injury but has had a solid AAU season thus far. A good shooter who plays hard, Marcum is capable of getting to the rim when needed but definitely is more comfortable pulling jumpers from range. Another Bronco who could have much more impact in is Sophomore season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["3589341"],"_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-6a179d787ba83"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Drake saw the floor in a dozen games for Ryle last season. As a Sophomore, I expect him to be a heavy rotation player. Allen is the younger cousin of 2019 Mr Basketball, Dontaie Allen. While Drake is not as big as his cousin, the younger Allen shoots the ball at a high level just like Dontaie did. Look for Drake to be a potential breakout contributor for Ryle this season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->

It's still super early in their careers but the 2029 class have now had a full high school season as well as half of their 15u AAU seasons under their belts. There are still plenty of new names emerging and we even had a top 10 player transfer into the state since the last update. Here's a look at the highest ranked new names in the latest update.
