Continue ReadingThe 2024 class is already halfway through their final season of AAU and only a few months away from being in their Senior years of high school. Recruiting is starting to heat up for several players and as we head into the summer, there’s a lot to be on the lookout for with this rising Senior class. Here’s a look at some players who deserve more attention from colleges this summer.
A versatile forward prospect, Gardner’s best asset is her motor and how hard she plays. Always active on both ends of the court, Savannah is capable of pulling down a rebound and pushing the break. She was limited to only 3 games last season due to injury but has been playing AAU and having a productive season thus far.
Highlights
Deere and Gardner have a lot of similarities as players. Both are 6 foot forwards and play really hard. Bella’s game and skill set is not as developed as Gardner yet but her upside is seriously high thanks to her size and athleticism. Cooper has a giant hole to fill with Whitney Lind Whitney Lind 6’1″ | PF Cooper | 2023 State KY gone and Deere has the tools to help fill that spot.
Highlights
Kylie is often overlooked thanks to the geography of living in Knott County but she had a fantastic Junior season where she averaged 17 points per game and led Knott County to Rupp Arena. Scoring point guards are often overlooked because there are so many of them available but Gayheart does more than just score the ball. Coaches who are looking for players that impact winning in multiple ways need to prioritize seeing Kylie this summer.
The second Bella on our list, Quinn is sometimes overlooked because she shares a backcourt with one of the most highly recruited players in Kentucky. Bella deserves more attention thanks to her ability to score the ball. Quinn is also a solid defender who has potential to be even better at the college level when a coach emphasizes defense with her. Long term, Bella may be one of the best prospects in the bottom half of our 2024 rankings.
