<p>Summer basketball is starting this week for a lot of schools around the Commonwealth. Over the course of this AAU season, some top rising Freshmen have been making their names more well known. Here's a look at some 2030s who are ready to make an impact this summer and beyond. </p>

<p class="text-gray-700">If you're looking for long term potential, [player_tooltip player_id='3417549' first='Aaron' last='Moore'] is your guy. He's already pushing 6'8" and has shown some flashes of being a face up big. Capable of rebounding at a high rate and offering rim protection on the defensive end, Moore has the sort of measurables that can make him a difference maker early on in his North Oldham career. He was at CAL this past season but will join AAU teammate [player_tooltip player_id='2726857' first='Pierre' last='Rondo'] at North Oldham this season.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Gent is the grandson of Kentucky legend Jack "Goose" Givens. He has good tools and has a high feel for the game. It remains to be seen if Jaylen gets the size that his grandpa had but he has already been playing AAU at a high level with the Team Goose program that has been really good this spring. Gent is a player to keep tabs on as he could play a lot at Sayre, starting this summer.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Gent's AAU teammate, Miner scored over 1,000 points in middle school and saw the floor a few times last year as an 8th grader for Scott County. This summer, Keaton figures to be a solid rotational piece as he can really shoot the ball. Long term, Miner is going to be a good point guard as he can create his own offense of facilitate for others. </p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Baldwin is a man child who can already compete physically against players a couple of years older than him. Landon is talented around the rim and can finish at a high rate. He's a good two handed rebounder and offers some rim protection despite not being the bounciest athlete. He earned a D1 offer from Tennessee Tech last week and has a high prospect ceiling.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Perhaps the highest ceiling prospect in the class, I think Prince has the potential to be a pro down the line. The younger brother of [player_tooltip player_id='2429605' first='Jordan' last='Jackson'], Thomas has the same wiry frame as Jackson but has the skill set of a wing or guard already. With the explosiveness that Prince has, he can live above the rim on both ends. He's a big time name to track in the 2030 class.</p>
