2027 Rankings Preview: “Big” Time Prospects

In this article we look at some of the power forwards and centers in the 2027 class who stood out over the spring and summer periods. These players are big time talents and will impact the next 2027 rankings in a big way.    [player_tooltip player_id='748533' first='Falisa' last='White'] played very well during the tournament I saw her performing in. The first thing I noticed was her athleticism. The second thing I noticed was her physicality. Her physicality on the floor looks and feels different. White scores well on the inside and she alson has the versatility to play out on the perimeter. She has the ability to get to the rim and finish through contact. White is also a good rebounder on both ends of the floor. White rebounds well and she has the potential to be even more dominant on the boards. She is unique and can rebound the ball and take it coast to coast from the 4 position.       [player_tooltip player_id='846674' first='Eni' last='Oyedeji'] was an inside force at the FABC showcase, the lone time I saw the center live and in person. She scored at will in the paint, she rebounded well, and defended the middle with ease. Oyedeji makes it all look easy, and she is just scratching the surface of how good and dominant she can be. The young center also has some impressive intangibles. She is charismatic and communicates well with her teammates- on and off the courts.       [player_tooltip player_id='515067' first='Makala' last='DesJarlais'] was impressive from day one. Her combination of speed and power is very intriguing. She has the ability to rebound, handle the ball, run the floor, and score the ball from a lot of areas on the court. DesJarlais can get to the rim in a hurry and knows how to finish with power, explosiveness, and physicality.       [player_tooltip player_id='843397' first='Karli' last='Torres'] is another young power forward who caught our eye last high school season and she is just scratching the surface of her potential. She can rebound the ball in an elite way and has posted a few games where she snatched 14 rebounds or more. Torres also scores well in the paint. Torres made a big impression and her stock will continue to grow.     [player_tooltip player_id='400813' first='Asiana' last='McCreary'] caught our eye throughout her Freshman season and she has continued to do so throughout the spring and summer. McCreary has great size and does a lot of things on the floor. She can score in the paint, on the wing, and in transition. She also does a good job when at the freethrow line. She does well in the pick and role game, and makes good decisions and good passes when the offense is run through her at the freethrow line. McCreary is just scratching the surface of how good she is going to be.
