No. 53 Davin Stoffel Davin Stoffel 6'5" | PF Mosinee | 2023 State WI – F – Wisconsin Swing
Averaged 10 points and seven rebounds per game as a sophomore for Mosinee. Plays a lot bigger than 6-foot-4. Smooth-looking shooter who can space the floor. Provides a certain toughness and playmaking edge defensively with his ability to protect the rim and get his hands on a lot of passes.
No. 54 Tyler Orr Tyler Orr 5'10" | PG Rice Lake | 2023 State WI – PG – Wisconsin Playmakers
Averaged 16 points and three assists per game as a sophomore. Good-looking stop-and-pop guard who can pull up on a dime and knock down tough shots on the go. Really crafty scorer that can create in isolation and has a lot of tricks when he gets into the paint and has to play in traffic.
No. 64 J.R. Lukenbill J.R. Lukenbill 6'4" | SG Burlington | 2023 State WI – SG – Wisconsin Rap
Averaged 11 points for a strong Burlington club last season. Has good size at 6-foot-3. Shot 56 percent from the field, including 44 percent from 3-point range. Can score in bunches, but also is very competitive defensively and on the glass.
No. 78 Mikail Harmison Mikail Harmison 6'0" | SF Appleton West | 2023 State WI – SF – Wisconsin Blizzard
Part of a rebuild at Appleton West and could be a big reason why they turn a corner next season. A big-bodied wing, Harmison averaged 11 points and five rebounds per game last season. Able to play and defend multiple spots. Was more of a slasher last year, but appears to have improved his jumper and is started to be more well-rounded as a scorer.
No. 86 Elijah Meerstein Elijah Meerstein 6'2" | PG N.E.W. Lutheran | 2023 State WI – PG – Wisconsin Crusaders
Won’t score a ton of points, but Meerstein is a guy you want running your team. He’s unselfish to a fault at times, but Meerstein thirves by getting his teammates involved. He helped lead NEW Lutheran to the state tournament last season, averaging eight points, 6.6 assists, and five rebounds per game. Plays with excellent pace, always applying pressure on the defense and forcing help defenders his way.
No. 88 A.C. Strok A.C. Strok 6'4" | SG New Glarus | 2023 State WI – SG – Wisconsin Academy
Averaged 6.4 points per game as a sophomore. Strok has a really nice scoring package, especially in the mid-range. Has some really good size and length at 6-foot-3. Able to knock down off-balance shots or with a hand in his face. A skilled shot creator that plays with balance and doesn’t lose confidence if a couple of shots don’t fall, Strok should be in store for a breakout junior season.
No. 92 Reak Riak Reak Riak 6'7" | PF Madison La Follette | 2023 State WI – F – Wisconsin Dynasty
High-upside prospect worth monitoring closely. The 6-foot-5 forward is a plus-length athletic prospect that’s very raw. Like how quickly he can get off the ground, especially when it comes to retrieving his own misses. Riak can impact the game in a lot of different ways, including blocking/altering shots on the other end.
No. 109 Will Gardner Will Gardner 6'2" | CG Franklin | 2023 State WI – G – ABC Young Lions
Gardner can play on or off the ball. He provided a strong floor presence for a veteran Franklin squad last year in their run to sectional finals. Gardner makes his open 3’s, makes smart decisions with the basketball, and is a plus defender.
