2029 Rankings Update: Top Newcomers

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The 2029 rankings update is here with nearly 125 prospects in the update. New prospects are a part of every update and this one is no different. Here are the top newcomers from the 2029 rankings update.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='3571134' first='Joshua' last='Stone'], 6'5 SF/CG St. Rose</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Stone is the top ranked newcomer in the update and has the potential to move up higher this summer. The 6'5 wing explodes off the floor for dunks and is able to draw contact in the paint. Stone uses his size to see over his defender and rises up nicely on his jumper. He has the length to defend multiple positions on the floor and is an underrated passer. Stone is a talented wing prospect who should have a big summer with his ability to make plays at both ends of the floor.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='3571124' first='Luke' last='Novak'], 6'4 SF/SG Princeton Day</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Novak has the ability to play either spot on the wing, making him an intriguing prospect to watch in the class. The 6'4 wing has a nice first step, which he uses to get to the rim off the bounce and finishes nicely around the rim. Novak is more than just a slasher as he has a good release on his jumper and sets his feet before he shoots. He fights for rebounds on both ends of the floor and uses his length to make an impact on the defensive end. Novak is a tough wing prospect who should have a big summer with his ability to score inside and out.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='3663553' first='Logan' last='Dipasupil'], 5'10 [player_tooltip player_id='3665515' first='PG' last='']/SG Northern Highlands</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Dipasupil has the ability to play either guard spot, which he should put on display this summer. The 5'10 guard has a smooth shooting stroke and can get hot from distance in a hurry. Dipasupil moves well without the ball in his hands, freeing himself for open jumpers and layups in the half court. He is an underrated passer and slides his feet on the defensive end. Dipasupil is a sharpshooting guard prospect who should torch the nets from distance over the next couple of months.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2846779' first='Ryan' last='Frame'], 6'1 SG/CG Bernards</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Frame had a solid spring and should carry it over into the summer. The 6'1 guard has a clean release on his jumper and should knock down triples in bunches. Frame frees himself for open jumpers in the half court and rarely forces shots in the half court. He has an underrated handle and can get deflections on the defensive end. Frame is one of the top shooters in the 2029 class and should showcase why during the next couple of months.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2970811' first='Ace' last='Murphy'], 5'10 [player_tooltip player_id='3665515' first='PG' last='']/CG College Achieve </strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Murphy has the opportunity to have a big summer as he should have the ball in his hands more. The 5'10 guard plays with composure on the ball as he rarely gets rattled by on-ball pressure and gets to his spot on the floor. Murphy can also score in the mid-range and sets his feet before he shoots. He can also play off the ball and uses his quick hands to get steals on the defensive end. Murphy is a dynamic guard prospect who should run the offense effectively throughout the course of the summer and fall. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Other Prospects to Know:</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='3602744' first='Ansoumae' last='Toure'], 5'10 [player_tooltip player_id='3665515' first='PG' last='']/SG Dickinson</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='3626497' first='Jalen' last='Chase'], 5'11 [player_tooltip player_id='3665515' first='PG' last=''] St. Benedict's</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='3599582' first='Adrian' last='Cadena'], 6'0 CG Newark East Side</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='3639359' first='Jahcin' last='Greene'], 6'2 CG/SG LEAP Academy</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='3043945' first='Qwayjohn' last='Joseph'], 5'10 SG/[player_tooltip player_id='3665515' first='PG' last=''] Plainfield</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
