2029 Spring Rankings - Stock Risers

There wasn't a lot of movement this release. As the 2029 class grows and begins to play more varsity basketball, expect more movement. These girls made their case to be a Stock Riser.   <a href="https://prepgirlshoops.com/dakotas/rankings/north-dakota-rankings/2029-rankings/">FULL 2029 RANKINGS - CLICK ME!</a>    Jurnee is a fascinating player to watch on the floor. She seems to have command on the offensive end that is unusual to see from a freshman. Her passing is ELITE. That is the first thing coaches will notice when recruiting Jurnee. She has incredible vision with the ball and nearly always makes the right decision. She can pass in transition to running teammates for easy baskets. She can get downhill and draw a secondary defender for an easy dump-off pass for a bucket. She can also drive and kick to open teammates for threes. Jurnee is also a capable scorer herself. She has a sweet shot and isn't afraid to take over a game herself. I see a lot of potential in Wehrman and it's only a matter of time until college coaches see the same.     [player_tooltip player_id='1312749' first='Kaylie' last='Welstad'] is the next big thing in North Dakota girls basketball and already holds two Division 1 scholarship offers from North Dakota State University and University of South Dakota. I am hard-pressed to recall a player that completely dominates all facets of the game, taking only what the defense gives her and always finding a way to make winning plays. If they try to take away her scoring, she turns to her passing and vice versa. She is an incredible ball-handler and defender. Her competitive nature is apparent on the court and she has great athleticism. I predict Kaylie receiving a ton of attention this summer and earning herself some more Division 1 scholarship offers.     Klabo played a ton of meaningful minutes this season for a very talented Horace team. She is one of 6 players who played all 27 games for the Hawks. She was very efficient this season from the field and didn't make many mistakes on the court. She shot the ball 50% overall and 44% from three. I anticipate her fighting for a starting position next season and helping Horace once again get back to the state tournament. She is a hardworking athlete who puts time into her game and has a desire to improve. She is just scratching the surface of how effective she will be as a high school player. She is a certainly a college prospect.     Haaven is a very talented guard. I really appreciate how hard she plays and that she can positively affect a game from multiple angles. She is her team's primary ball-handler and press-breaker, but can also play off the ball. She is talented enough to keep space and knock down perimeter baskets. She can get downhill in a hurry and either finish at the basket or find her open teammates. She is a good jumper and rebounder for her size and surprisingly stronger and more physical than you might think. She also has a motor like few high schoolers have: she plays the entire game with no substitutions. Look for Hilary to continue improving as she grows as an athlete.     Reiner and teammate [player_tooltip player_id='969855' first='AnnaClaire' last='Bugbee'] create probably the most dominate front-court in the entire state. She is incredibly strong around the basket and isn't afraid of contact or physical play. Other players are scared of how physical Alli is around the hoop. She moves people with ease, fights for position, and is a very effective rebounder. She draws a ton of fouls and gets to the free-throw line often. She is a good free-throw shooter, shooting 70% from the line last season. Reiner was selected as an All-WDA player last season and will be a future All-State selection as well. She is a prospect that has a high ceiling due to her physical abilities. I am eager to see how her Spring and Summer AAU season goes.     Annie worked her way into the starting lineup about halfway through the regular season. She is an intriguing prospect due to her size and athletic ability. She stands at 5'10 and is more than capable of handling the ball. She plays about half the game at the point and the other half off of the ball. She isn't fazed by full-court pressure and plays off of two feet. She hustles after offensive rebounds and keeps possessions alive. She boxes out hard on the defensive end and can defend either guards or posts. She is trusted to play at the end of games due to her excellent decision making. Yablonski has potential to be a very good prospect.     Keelyn is a lot of fun to watch on the court. She is a fundamentally sound guard and plays well on both sides of the floor. Offensively, she is a big threat from the three point line. Central Cass has a handful of set plays installed just to get Flanagan clean looks from three. She can change the entire course of a game if she gets hot from outside. She is also able to take the ball off of the bounce and get to the basket. This comes from opponents being so concerned about her outside shooting and therefor they close out tight on her. She is a sound defender and is effective in the Squirrels full-court run and jump press. She has potential to be a really good player.
