Kroll enters the rankings and debuts at #32. He’s a solid two-way guard with a solid overall profile. He’s on a stacked Groton Area and James Valley Thunder 15U-Weber team and completes the Big 3 with Zak and Weber.

Kroll is slightly overshadowed on a James Valley Thunder 15U-Weber team with two top-10 ranked 2028 prospects playing alongside him. On most 15U teams he’s probably most likely a second option at worst. I didn’t notice any rare traits from Kroll, but he has a solid profile and he will have a solid upcoming ranking because he performs on the court and is consistently making winning and important plays. He had a few transition plays that were slightly eye-popping and was a reminder that he has game and skill in his own right.

Kroll may be a little overshadowed and overlooked with Zak and Weber in the same 2028 class at Groton Area. But he’s also one of the top upside guards in the class. He’s easily a Top 50 prospect in the class, I just haven’t placed him yet. He’s got some lengthy arms for a young guard that he uses extremely well to be an opportunistic defensive playmaker. He can lockdown and defend with movement and long arms. He can jump and get up at a nice high-point, in which he uses to defend at the rim, or score with length off the drive and in transition. On top of all the qualities, he’s a jump shot maker as well.
