He has great size and length and uses it to his advantage every possession and is a big time athlete. His footwork down low is excellent and is able to get open and seal defenders nicely on the block.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2457269"],"_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-66ff03317620b"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Caleb's size at 6'5" really stands out on the court. He runs the court well in tranisition, being able to fill lanes quickly or run the court using his dribble. Ross uses his length smoothly in order to get to his shots, getting by defenders with his long wingspan. His long wingspan also helps him on the defensive side where he has quick hands and reaction time.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2140817"],"_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-66ff033176269"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Gabe is a long lefty wing/guard who shoots the ball very, very well. He has a quick release and high release point, moving well off ball and getting open with ease. Kearney reads defenses quickly and knows how to use screens and come off them to create space to get his shot off.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2132831"],"_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-66ff0331762b5"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Malcolm JUMPS out of the gym. He is insanely athletic and uses it well. He runs the court quickly and is not afraid to go at anyone on the block and dunk on them. He can extend his game to the three point line too, sinking threes when his release is quick and smooth. He should see a rise in the upcoming rankings.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->

With the rankings update coming up quickly, I wanted to take a look into each class and see which players could be on the potential rise when the rankings are officially updated. Here is the 2027 class.
