<!-- wp:heading {"level":3} --> <h3 class="wp-block-heading">After taking some time to watch film and catch a few live games, it is clear that the C<a href="https://prepgirlshoops.com/illinois/rankings/2027-watch-list/">lass of 2027</a> is starting to separate itself. Some players are climbing, a few are holding steady, and a couple new names are making real cases for themselves. With the first half of the AAU season wrapping up, here is a look at the updated prospect rankings and some new names in the top 30.</h3> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:heading {"level":1} --> <h1 class="wp-block-heading"><a href="https://prepgirlshoops.com/illinois/rankings/2027-watch-list/">CLASS OF 2027 UPDATED RANKINGS</a></h1> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["880886"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-680ec3162e6e3"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"><em>Toliver is one of the more physical players in this class, and with her frame it is easy to understand why she is able to walk away from most games with a double double, and usually a high numbered one. She has great hands, does not need much to get going on the block, and plays with a ton of energy and awareness on the boards.</em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["863112"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-680ec3162e74e"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"><em>Brinkmann is coming off a state title win, and seeing her in those games showed that she has been adding to her game while gaining more control over her frame and matching it with her skillset.

Defensively is where I see her causing the most damage, playing the passing lanes and staying in front of her matchup. On the offensive end is where you get the bonus. She is a playmaker, a dynamic scorer, and can get hot from every level and almost every spot. One of those intriguing prospects to keep an eye on. Strong potential.</em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["616776"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-680ec3162e824"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"><em>Looking past the size, James is one of the most skilled and talented guards in this class.
