PRO16 and NXT 2028s Ready For Big Junior Jumps

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>With their junior seasons quickly approaching, several prospects in the 2028 class appear ready to take a significant step forward. Whether through expanded roles, continued physical development, or a growing level of confidence, these players have positioned themselves for breakout campaigns that could elevate their recruitment and establish them among the top names in the class.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":3725380,"_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-6a837688d23e9"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">A hard playing wing who can finish above the rim and seemingly guard 2-4 capably, Jones is the latest in an increasingly long line of scholarship level wings to come through Eagle under Roosevelt Byers. Jones' ability to guard up and rebound will make it hard for him to stay off the floor with what appears to be another fast paced group. Wagner recently offered- and that appears to just be the start. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2504903"],"_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-6a837688d2452"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">The rapidly-improving big man is the cornerstone of the Bulldogs program and for good reason. A fluid 6-foot-9 forward who can score around the rim, rebound, or protect the rim, Cowell plays incredibly hard. His motor and skillset fit well into the Blair roster and the big men around him. After being one of the better players on PRO16 last season, he will look to show the rest of the country just that this high school season. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["3721431"],"_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-6a837688d2480"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The Graphics Campus big man appears to just be starting to put things together as a player, but long term has some untapped potential. With a long wingspan, good motor, and timing as a shot blocker, Parker's ability to impact the game without scoring is impressive. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2784534"],"_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-6a837688d24b3"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">A talented scorer and dangerous shooter, Goldberg will likely be one of the focal points of the Westminster offense in the Fall and Winter. He moves well off the ball and doesn't hesitate to let it fly. Goldberg also is capable of scoring at the rim and looks like he should fill out a bit more in the long run. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["3035854"],"_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-6a837688d24e5"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Speed, handle and vision allow Pratt to get where he wants to on the floor and help him to create offense. Like his brother, he is fairly instant offense by himself, scoring at the rim and in the mid-range at will. As he continues to refine his game, he will prove to be a scholarship player in his own right. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
