Updated Class of 2027 Rankings: Byron's Top Stock Risers

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The 2027 class is entering their first year as upperclassmen, which means their roles will change. A lot of these players showed major growth the moment summer ball started, and they haven't slowed down. With another AAU season under their belt, it's a little clearer what prospects have a strong chance to play at the next level, and where they could play is beginning to show as well. </h2>   <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Below are 5 stock risers in our recent update who were impressive throughout the summer.</h2>    There are a lot of players in this class who have had a strong summer, but Thulin's summer came with a significant number of offers, and even a Big East offer to follow. Speaking with coaches across the D1 level, this kid is on everyone's radar, and it's not hard to understand why. She's a competitor with a strong skillset. Each year that I've watched her play, she's shown more confidence and a deeper understanding of how to play and be effective in this game.     Still under the radar due to location, but if you find the time to watch in person or you track down the film to study.. Toliver has the potential, and the upside is strong. Time is on her side, but i have a good feeling that coaches will start to take notice soon.     Regardless of the stature, Fahy is nothing to take lightly. She's aggressive, she's competitive, and she has no fear at all. Whether in AAU or high school ball this summer, she has shown up and has shown out. Her skillset is predicated on her being the main ball handler and her speed, but she can play off-ball and be a secondary option if needed, and still be just as impactful. Catch and shooting, making the extra pass, being a decoy, whatever the task is, she is up for it.     Locke is another name that has been mentioned by coaches, especially after her past couple of performances at the high school live event. She's a player who can blend in or stand out, which is hard to find in complementary players these days. She's fundamentally sound and can score from each level if need be. A player that every program can benefit from.     One of those high-IQ guards who is a true combo type. From a facilitator role, she sees the court well and knows how and when to get her teammates going. From a scoring standpoint, her game isn't flashy, but she plays off pure instincts and no fear, which ultimately makes her a threat no matter where she's located on the court. A player to watch for Morton this year.
