Continue ReadingEarlier this week we posted the inaugural watch list for the Class of 2027. This list begins with 60 total prospects, and 13 of them are wing prospects. There will be a number of changes to this list over the coming months and years, as we learn about new prospects, and as current listed prospects improve their “recruitability”. While we don’t have anyone truly ranked at this time, I did want to specifically mention five young ladies who stand out to me at this point in time.

– Lillie is arguably the top prospect in the state in 2027, and she just continues to improve. She is extremely long, wiry-strong, and fluidly athletic in all directions. She is still best in the mid-post or attacking the basket from the perimeter, but her jump-shot continues to develop nicely and is becoming more consistent. I also like her defensive versatility and effort.

– Claire is a smooth and fluid point forward type of prospect. She can push in transition and initiate the offense, plus she’s good at finding open teammates. She has touch from the perimeter and can finish in a variety of ways around the basket. Her length and athleticism allow her to play with versatility defensively. She recently enrolled at Greensburg after growing up in Waldron.

– Lilly is extremely intriguing, and while she’s already skilled, I feel like the best is yet to come. She is wiry and tremendously long, and once she’s done growing it would benefit her greatly to add some strength to her frame. But she can handle it a little, score it at all three levels, and she is versatile defensively as well. She’s sort of a “wait-and-see” prospect because of her growth potential.

Washington | 2027

, 2027, 5-10 SG/SF, Washington H.S.
– London was solid to strong most games this Spring & Summer at the 16U level. She has nice length, a wiry-strong frame, and she is a balanced all-around athlete who plays hard. She can handle it and play a point forward role at times, but she also has touch outside, plus she can attack the basket and finish through contact against her peers. She might still grow as well.
Courtney Mathew

, 2027, 5-9 SG/SF, Rensselaer Central H.S.
– Courtney is a really nice wing prospect who probably hasn’t drawn as much attention as she might warrant. She has length, she moves well in most directions, and she can make plays at all levels. She’s a very good perimeter shooter when in rhythm, but her ability to go off the bounce and create offense is what stands out most. She’s also an effortful and versatile defender.
