<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The 2028 rankings update came out on Monday with nearly 200 prospects being ranked. Somerset County is filled with high level prospects who should have big summers. Here are the Somerset County prospects to track from the 2028 rankings update.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2504896' first='William' last='Brunson'], 6'6 SF Rutgers Prep</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Brunson is the top ranked prospect in the 2028 rankings update after a monster sophomore campaign. The 6'6 wing explodes off the floor for dunks and uses his quick first step to get into the paint off the bounce. Brunson rises up with confidence on his jumper and can find his open teammates in the half court. He uses his athleticism to make plays on the defensive end and skies for rebounds on both ends of the floor. Brunson is a talented wing prospect who should fill up the box score during the spring and summer months.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2397968' first='Connor' last='Junker'], 6'1 PG Gill St. Bernards</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Junker had a big season for the Knights as helped them take home their first state title in school history. The 6'1 guard has a smooth release on his jumper and can knock down triples in bunches. Junker moves well without the ball in his hands, freeing himself for open jumpers and layups in the half court. He makes good decisions with the ball in his hands and slides his feet on the defensive end. Junker is a sharpshooting guard prospect who should torch the nets from distance over the next couple of months.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2683649' first='Mike' last='Simborski'], 6'4 SG Montgomery</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Simborski had a breakout campaign for the Cougars as he had big games down the stretch for them. The 6'4 guard attacks the basket with a purpose as he finishes strong above the rim and can draw contact in the paint. Simborski can also score in the mid-range and makes opponents pay for giving him space behind the arc. He has the length to defend multiple positions on the floor and is a solid rebounder. Simborski is a skilled wing prospect who should continue to elevate his game over the course of the UAA season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2683646' first='Aaron' last='Feath'], 6'3 SG Hillsborough</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Feath powered the Raiders' offense as he helped them to the sectional title game. The 6'3 guard uses his handle to get to his spot on the floor and finishes nicely around the rim. Feath is more than just a slasher as he has a nice release on his jumper and can get hot from distance in a hurry. He is a strong rebounder and uses his quick hands to get deflections on the defensive end. Feath has been playing at high level throughout the course of the season and is looking to carry it over into the AAU season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2390429' first='Bryce' last='Higgins'], 6'3 SF Immaculata</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Higgins had a solid season for the Spartans as he showed his ability to impact the game in a variety of ways. The 6'3 forward uses his body to get position down low and has a nice touch around the rim. Higgins can also put the ball on the deck and his range extends out to the three-point line. He rips down rebounds on both ends of the floor and holds his ground on the defensive end. Higgins is a hard-working forward prospect whose ability to make plays at both ends of the floor is something that will help his stock in a big way during the spring AAU season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Other Prospects to Track:</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='3040515' first='Shriyans' last='Mallavarapu'], 6'9 C/PF Montgomery</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2972049' first='Julian' last='Ceberio'], 6'5 SG/CG Rutgers Prep</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2874609' first='Jack' last='Toth'], SG Hillsborough</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='3040516' first='James' last='Kamara'], 6'4 SF/SG Montgomery</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2763586' first='Owen' last='Kenyon'], 6'3 SF/SG Manville</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
