<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>If you're looking for shooting guards in the 2027 class poised to climb the rankings, here's a group of prospects ready to make a strong push this spring with their play.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["3571138"],"_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-69e706d437c34"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Playing with Virginia Premier this spring, Rutley is a junior guard with ideal positional size and a well rounded offensive skill set. He's a high IQ player who sees the floor well and consistently makes the right reads as a passer. Rutley is also a confident shot maker with range, capable of scoring at all three levels, whether knocking down perimeter shots, creating in the midrange, or finishing at the rim. His combination of size, feel, and versatility makes him a prospect to monitor closely as he continues to develop.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["3035379"],"_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-69e706d437cb4"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">A strong wing with positional size, Smalling is playing this spring with [program_tooltip program_id='3424568' first='Team' last='Loaded Gold']. He moves well without the ball, finds ways to impact the game within the flow of the offense, and consistently produces at the offensive end. He is reliable shot maker and can attack and finish above the rim. Smalling fills the stat sheet with his ability to rebound and defend multiple positions, making him a valuable two-way presence on the floor.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2470583"],"_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-69e706d437cfe"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">One of the state's top perimeter shooters and scorers, Barnhart continues to impress with his ability to make shots from deep while also expanding his game off the bounce. He's become increasingly effective creating in the midrange and is a creative finisher in the paint, showing touch and body control around the rim. Barnhart will look to build on that momentum this spring with [program_tooltip program_id='2226248' first='Boo' last='Williams'] EYCL, where he'll face high level competition and continue to elevate his stock.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["3295789"],"_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-69e706d437d45"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">A contributor on one of the country's top teams, Harsanyi is poised to continue expanding both his role and overall development. He's a capable shot maker who can stretch the floor, and he has the athleticism to finish above the rim when attacking. Harsanyi plays with a high IQ, competes with toughness, and brings a reliable, team first approach that should allow his impact to grow moving forward.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2815333"],"_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-69e706d437d8b"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Another prospect poised for an expanded role over the next 12 months, Lloyd is a shot making wing with a strong feel for the game. He can knock down perimeter shots, attack closeouts effectively, and shows the ability to finish in the paint over length and athleticism. With his scoring instincts and improving game, Lloyd is trending in the right direction as his opportunities increase.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
