Prep Hoops Indiana: The Expo - Top Stock-Risers

All of our events at Prep Hoops Indiana generate a lot of attention across the state. However, the growth of The Expo is a major point of pride for our team as we wrap up the summer. This year we doubled the size of the event bringing in nearly 120 prospects in the Classes of 2027 and 2028. Also, more than just the raw numbers, the level of talent was very impressive. We hosted over 40 Top 100 prospects today and had college coaches from the Division II, Division III, and NAIA levels in attendance. This was truly one of the best exposure events of the year that you could attend as a prospect.   As always, we will be unleashing a ton of content over the next week or so coming out of The Expo. We will have evaluations of every player in attendance post on a team-by-team basis. Also, top performers, new names, and more will be highlighted. Here are some of the top stock-risers that caught our attention at Prep Hoops Indiana: The Expo.

Boyd is a 6'4" versatile two-way wing that excels by using his athleticism and length on both ends of the floor. He is an effective right hand driver, good cutter, and can be great on the offensive glass. Defensively he is able to switch across multiple positions. Look for him to be a key factor into what makes Liberty Christian one of the top Class 1A teams in the state once again this season. He was very good on Sunday at Prep Hoops Indiana: The Expo.     College coaches always need size and Bridgeman Jr. has it. He looked even bigger than we remembered on Sunday at Prep Hoops Indiana: The Expo. The 6'7" center has a strong frame, but also moves well and can get up to play above the rim. He finishes at the rim offensively, protects the rim defensively, and can go grab rebounds outside of his area. There is a lot of upside on the defensive end to be intrigued by. Small college programs should absolutely be evaluating Bridgeman Jr. heading into his senior season at South Bend Washington High School.     One of the top stock-risers from our event on Sunday, and a name that really caught our attention this summer overall, was this 6'2" junior guard from Greensburg High School. Buening is an excellent athlete with explosive leaping ability at the end of his drives. He will go up and dunk on you if you aren't ready to contest him. The talented guard is definitely at his best when attacking downhill, but he showed the ability to make jump shots as well to keep the defense honest. Look for him to have a big junior season for the Pirates.     One of our favorite under-the-radar prospects from this summer has been this 6'6" forward from North Posey High School. Compton averaged just shy of a double-double as a junior and is poised for a big senior season. He is a fluid athlete, very comfortable finishing around the rim, and has some bounciness that really helps him defensively and on the glass. Small college programs should absolutely be evaluating him heading into his senior season. He played very well against a high level of competition at Prep Hoops Indiana: The Expo.     Generally known as a pure point guard, King shot the lights out from three-point range at Prep Hoops Indiana: The Expo. He averaged over five assists per game as a junior to lead the Woodmen, but on Sunday he was pouring it in as a scoring threat from the perimeter while still showing off his playmaking ability. Adding more of a scoring threat to what we know he can do as a facilitator will only make him that much more of a prospect heading into his senior season at Greenwood.     Minch was excellent in both three-on-three and five-on-five play at Prep Hoops Indiana: The Expo. The 6'2" guard is an impressive shot-maker showcasing the ability to create his own looks off of the dribble and space the floor as a catch-and-shoot threat. He came in and played a valuable role for Scecina Memorial as a sophomore and should blossom into an even larger role now as a junior. Minch is a stock-riser in the Class of 2028 that should continue to attract attention with his offensive skill level.     Parker definitely benefited from Prep Hoops Indiana: The Expo. He is a bigger guard that can toggle between several different positions in the backcourt and on the wing. The 6'3" playmaker is a very good passer and found success getting to the basket off of the dribble consistently. He was able to start the break in transition, attack the paint in the half court, and made a lot of great plays for his teammates throughout the event. Look for him to have a breakout senior season at Castle High School.     This 6'1" athletic guard caught our attention a few times over the summer with a very good [program_tooltip program_id='2559412' first='Marlin' last='Academy'] (P32) 16u team, but Sunday at Prep Hoops Indiana: The Expo was as good as we have seen him play in person. Smith was excellent off of the dribble consistently getting to mid-range pull-up jumpers and creating open looks for his teammates. He was effective out beyond the arc as a three-point shot-maker as well. His quickness with the ball in his hands makes him a tough cover on the perimeter for opposing defenders. Look for him to have a big junior season at Crawfordsville High School.
