<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The more I work through the 2028 rankings list, the more I realize just how deep this class truly is. With each update, I continue to discover new talent. Here's a look at some more prospects who may not have much notoriety yet, but have what it takes to break out on the scene this upcoming season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["965793"],"_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-68d87388bdbc3"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">A lefty guard who can hit jumpers but really excels as a driver, she's a crafty and creative finisher at the rim. Defensively, she does a solid job on the perimeter, keeping the ball in front of her. She averaged 5 points and nearly 2 rebounds per game for DuPont Manual as a freshman and is poised to step into a starting role this season with the team losing their top scorers to transfer and graduation. <em>(Featured Image)</em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["963041"],"_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-68d87388bdd03"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Delaney comes from a strong basketball pedigree. Her older sister Carly ranks 6th on the KHSAA all-time assist leaders list and helped lead Owsley County to their first Sweet 16 appearance in the 2023–24 season. Delaney made her own impact last year, averaging 6.3 points and 3 rebounds per game while shooting 37% from three. A high-energy guard, she brings value on both ends of the floor and looks ready to take another step forward this season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["963010"],"_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-68d9b006d61ef"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Gia is a legit sniper from three-point land with deep catch-and-shoot range and a perfect form. She averaged 3.7 points per game for the Lady Crusaders last season, but with her skill set and scoring ability, I expect an uptick in production as she steps into her sophomore campaign.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["899730"],"_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-68d9b006d6423"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Kelsey finished her freshman season as Berea's second-leading scorer, averaging 9 points per game. She's a skilled guard with a tight handle who creates offense off the bounce and has shown shooting touch from downtown. Now making the move to Magoffin County, she'll provide an immediate boost and help bolster their roster.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["859872"],"_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-68d9b006d64a8"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Emme Kelley is a talented combo guard at Beechwood High School who led the team in scoring last season with 11 points per game. She has a great feel for the game, can score from anywhere on the floor, and brings solid playmaking ability with her court- vision and passing. She looks primed for an even stronger sophomore season and is definitely a prospect to follow.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
