<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>In a talented 2028 class, spots in our player rankings are increasingly difficult to earn. After a spring of evaluations, here are five shooting guards that stood out and earned their way into our <a href="https://prephoops.com/florida/rankings/2028-rankings/" id="https://prephoops.com/florida/rankings/2028-rankings/">Updated 2028 Rankings</a>.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2908937"],"_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-6a2358973cf61"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">One of the top scoring guards on the UA Rise Circuit for the [program_tooltip program_id='2799557' first='Mighty' last='Titans'], Williams is an athletic guard who can score at all three levels. The rising junior is excellent in transition and in open space to go along with his ability to attack the rim in the halfcourt. Williams is an improving shot maker and can be a secondary ball handler at the offensive end. At the defensive end, he can guard multiple positions and uses his length and athleticsm to guard the ball and play in the passing lanes.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2919717"],"_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-6a2358973cfea"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">One of the most skilled guards in the class, Pozo can pass, dribble and shoot it from the perimeter for PSB Tampa. He has shooting range beyond the arc, can create offense off the dribble and is a creative finisher in the paint. The high academic prospect has good size and strength and a high basketball IQ. Expect his ascension in the rankings to continue.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2676844"],"_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-6a2358973d042"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Naranjo is a stat sheet stuffer for Innovation and 1 Family on the PUMA Pro 16 circuit. The rising junior is a scoring threat, can pass and create opportunities for teammates, is active on the glass and will defend. He has a good feel for the game, better than average positional size and plays with a high motor. Naranjo is certainly a prospect to continue tracking in the 2028 class.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["3658778"],"_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-6a2358973d095"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">One of the state's top scorers during the high school season, the rising junior can score in a variety of ways at the offensive end. Childers-Menser has deep shooting range and can create his own offense off the dribble. He can make shots in the midrange and is big and athletic enough to finish at the rim. Playing for [program_tooltip program_id='2076347' first='SOH' last='Elite'] this spring, he earned a spot in our updated rankings and has the potential to continue to rise.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["3658781"],"_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-6a2358973d0e8"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">One of the top pure shooters in the class, Larson made 54 shots from beyond the arc at a 37% clip for Jesuit this season and continued that momentum into the spring with [program_tooltip program_id='2076293' first='Skills' last='Center Elite']. The rising junior moves well without the ball and hunts his shot. He has good shot preparation and looks to be improving his ability to create space off the dribble. In additional to his offensive contribution, Larson is capable of rebounding from the backcourt and has a good feel for the game.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
