<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>It is getting a little bit intense when it comes to recruiting with the new 5 for 5 making its way to college. That means you will see some more top-notch players make their way into the JUCO/NWAC ranks as well as the D2/NAIA scene. Here are some low risk/high reward prospects in the Class of 2027.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2218132"],"_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-6a5998728542f"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">When teams are looking for PG's at the next level, you hope that they can defend their position and that they can manage to run an offense and handle pressure. Tobler checks all of those boxes, and what makes him a player with upside is the fact that he can shoot the ball with ease, and he has range as well. When he can get downhill, he makes good decisions, and with some simple wiggle, he has been able to create. Tobler's skill level is something that you can expect to translate to the next level. He is a player to put on your board at the PG spot, especially in the JUCO/NWAC level. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2477808"],"_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-6a599872854aa"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Bagley is a player that you can lump in with some of the best Swiss Army Knife-style prospects, and that is what makes him an interesting prospect at the next level. With his size and strength, you can put him on the ball and off the ball. Bagley has shown he can defend 1-3 with ease and excels on defense. On offense, he is crafty, but he is a player who plays with a high motor, doesn't stop, and has an eager playing style that should get him a handful of looks at the next level. Bagley can come in right out of high school and make a case for himself as a freshman at the D2 level. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1724426"],"_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-6a59987285535"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">I believe that this high school season, you are going to see a different type of Hall than you have seen in the past. He has the takeover ability, and he has put up nice numbers, but this coming season, you can expect him to take his game to a new level. Hall will be among some of the top scorers in 5A, and he is a player that you need to game plan for. With elite one-on-one breakdown ability, you can expect him to put his head down more and attack. Hall is going to be a sought-after prospect in the D1 JUCO scene. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1724369"],"_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-6a5998728558d"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Oyler is a player that came out of the gate as a freshman and now is entering his senior season. Oyler has become more of a floor general ove rthe years and maintained his elite shooting. He has his best basketball yet to be played as he could be a steal for a program. NAIA/D2 level could really get a steal at the PG position. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2812147"],"_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-6a599872855e4"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Bylund is off the radar and will be a steal at the JUCO level. He brings a toughness to the floor as he is scrappy and will defend. Bylund will also get on the floor and play at a high level with a high motor. With good size as a wing at 6'6, Bylund is a low-risk player at the next level who could develop into a monster. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->

It is getting a little bit intense when it comes to recruiting with the new 5 for 5 making its way to college. That means you will see some more top-notch players make their way into the JUCO/NWAC ranks as well as the D2/NAIA scene. Here are some low risk/high reward prospects in the Class of 2027.
