2027 Player Rankings Update: Size & Structure

In this article we highlight four prospects out of the 2027 Class in Nebraska, that have the size and fundamental structure to make a difference on any court they compete on at this point.   Thanks for tuning in and enjoy!    [player_tooltip player_id='747255' first='Elise' last='Pederson'] has been a prospect that we have talked about a few times throughout the years up until this point and she is primed for a big Winter season this year with her Westside High School program. Pederson comes in right around 6'0 with a physical presence to her game near the basket. This AAU season with her ETG Midwest [program_tooltip program_id='713325' first='Elite' last=''] 3SSB team, she has been one of the more consistent prospects, showing that she is willing to do anything that her coaches ask of her in their time of need. When you combined that with her size and skill level at this point, you start to see the promise. In this Update, Pederson is coming in at #20 for her Class overall, a number that she should be proud of because within this group, to be ranked at all is a tough challenge. If she continues to work on her craft and perfect what she does best, watch out. This is one of those players that could get a lot of love from collegiate recruits at the end of the day.     There is a lot of questions that surround [player_tooltip player_id='924488' first='Ayranna' last='Wegner'] and her ability but something that is not questioned is her natural size and strength. For High School ball, Wegner is home schooled and plays in the home school league throughout the state of Nebraska so it's hard to compare her to others just yet. She is someone that stands at 6'1, she understands the situational part of the game, and she is always willing to be the difference maker that her team can rely on. Honestly, I think that if Wegner played and moreso practiced with a high school team every day, it would do her wonders but you can't knock her work ethic. She is someone with a positive attitude and that translates to any floor when you are watching prospects compete.     [program_tooltip program_id='712924' first='Team' last='Factory'] has some ballers, one of them being Small Forward, [player_tooltip player_id='747259' first='Corryn' last='Estelle'] of PLV High School. Estelle comes in at 5'9 and she competes with a chip on her shoulder. She is someone that her team can rely on for a bucket near the basket when she has time and she is also skilled enough to assist others if the defense decides to double team her on the catch. She may be somewhat "undersized" for her position but she has held her own in every live contest that I've seen her compete in and that says a lot. On this pace, she will end her high school career as someone to know. She just needs to stay dedicated and the rest will follow suit.     [player_tooltip player_id='865331' first='Kennedy' last='Davis'] of Centura High School has so much upside potential that if I was a college recruiter, this is someone that I would keep any eye on moving into the future. As a Freshman last season, Davis averaged just over 7 PPG on 35% shooting, while also grabbing right around 6 RPG. Not to mention, she also averaged just under 2 APG and 2 SPG. When you combined all of this and take into account that she stands at 6'0, you start to realize that there is some high potential here. This is another one of those prospect that understands her role and if she were to continue to get better, there wouldn't be many other prospects that could stand in her way of being successful on the hardwood. If she is dedicated enough, she is going to be steal out of this 2027 Class, she just needs to stay consistent and the rest will work itself out at the end of the day.
