With the 2026 rankings being fully updated this week as we head into the summer and the rest of AAU in July. Here are some watch list players to keep an eye on.   Berlyn Zimmerman - Deer Park - Feisty defender who makes offensive players work for their buckets. She stays in front well, moving her feet quickly and having active hands. She brings the grit and energy to the Deer Park team and her teammates feed off of it. She can hit shots smoothly on the offensive side of the ball too.   [player_tooltip player_id='586685' first='Brynlee' last='Williams'] - Skyview - Williams is a top tier defender as she can smoothly guard multiple positions on the court and really gores 100% every play. She rebounds good too, always going for loose balls and being able to box out efficiently. She uses her length on the offensive side to get buckets and finish over defenders.   [player_tooltip player_id='759457' first='C.K.' last='Kandola'] - Auburn Riverside - She is a walking bucket, being able to score well and be able to handle the workload on the offensive side. She is a gritty player who attacks the bucket hard and can finish through traffic. She likes to shoot the three ball, letting it fly if defenders close out slow.   [player_tooltip player_id='753697' first='Kiki' last='Anderson'] - Cedarcrest - Kiki plays with a chip on her shoulder, staying physical on both ends and being a difference-maker for her team. She rebounds the ball really well, having a knack for reading the ball coming off the rim at a high rate. She can score smoothly as she finishes in the paint and can shoot jumpers nicely too.   Kinsley Neal - Meridian - Kinsley is a bit undersized at the guard position, standing around 5'3/4". Neal knows the game well, being able to know what shots she should take and when she needs to pass the ball to the open defender. She is an excellent shot from deep, being able to knock down a couple threes any given night.
