No. 19 Jasin Sinani Jasin Sinani 6'3" | SG Oak Creek | 2021 State WI – Oak Creek
Previous: 33
This 2021 class just gets deeper and deeper with Division 1 talent. Sinani earned a scholarship offer from UW-Milwaukee and committed over
the summer. A skilled two-guard who can knock down shots all over the floor, Sinani is a terrific shot creator off the dribble. A player that was just inside the top 50 to begin the summer, Sinani woke us up big time with his play over the last several months.
No. 57 Ronald Kirk Ronald Kirk 6'4" | SF Dominican | 2021 State WI – Dominican
Previous: 69
Size, strength, athleticism — Kirk checks off a ton of boxes and has drastically improved since the beginning of last season. A slasher who can live at the rim, the 6-foot-4 wing is a very imposing prospect that will go through defenders en route to the paint if needed. Also a strong defender and 3-point shooter, Kirk is an excellent value prospect for just about any level.
No. 64 Jackson Dudek Jackson Dudek 6'7" | PF Kimberly | 2021 State WI – Kimberly
Previous: 103
Dudek has kind of been lost in the shuffle for a talented Kimberly squad, but started to show what he could do over the summer, especially at the Prep Hoops Top250 Expo. The 6-foot-7 forward is mobile, active, and probably just scratching the surface of his potential. Dudek runs the floor really well for his size, does the dirty work under the rim, and plays with good footwork in traffic — all of which helped him land a scholarship from Northern Michigan, where he’s now committed.
No. 67 Angelo Rizzo – Janesville Craig
Previous: 78
Rizzo is one of the best players that people haven’t heard of yet and he still might be undervalued at No. 67. Rizzo is a bucket getter with strong positional size (6-4). The Janesville Craig standout had a big junior season scoring the basketball. He’s also a very good defender that wants to shut down the other team’s best player.
No. 81 Vinko Polovic – Franklin
Previous: 124
Interested to see how his senior season goes. Polovic first jumped out on film and backed up what we thought at the Prep Hoops Top250 Expo. He’s a long, lean forward that runs really well and can do some impressive things in transition. A potential late bloomer, Polovic averaged less than four points per game last season and could be one of the biggest breakout players in the state in 2020-21.
No. 95 Gunnar DeCleene Gunnar DeCleene 6'2" | SG Bay Port | 2021 State WI – Bay Port
Previous: 104
Think this could be a priority recruit for a lot of Division 3 programs, potentially even WIAC schools. DeCleene just gets the game of basketball and does things that translate to winning games. DeCleene can do a little bit of everything. As a junior, he averaged 10 points, three rebounds, and two assists per game game. He’ll knock down his open perimeter shots, play high-IQ defense, and is a better athlete than people think.
