Spring Rankings Update: 2029 Centers

We are midway through the Spring, and we have updated the prospect rankings in all four graduating classes currently enrolled in high school. For the ladies in the Class of 2029, this is the first time any of them have truly been ranked on PGH Indiana. The overall list (rankings & watch list included) has expanded from 75 total prospects to 100 total prospects, and there is now a Top 25. With that said, below is a look at all of the center prospects in the Class of 2029. Below the rankings chart are some quick updates on a handful of uncommitted prospects.    .    McKenzie has been playing in the high school age divisions of grassroots basketball for a couple of years now, so she has already built a following. She has a big, strong frame, broad shoulders, and some length as well. She possesses soft hands, nice touch around the rim, and she keeps the ball out of the reach of defenders. Additionally, she has always worked on her game facing the basket, so while she'll never be a wing, she can knock down an open rhythm jumper. Defensively, she is a space-eater and a bit of a "bully", meaning she likes to seek contact early in possessions to gain an advantage.     This Spring was my first opportunity to see Keianah, and she is absolutely intriguing. She has an athletically strong frame, nice length, and she runs the floor well North/South. She plays with a nice all-around motor, she doesn't mind mixing it up inside, but she also has some versatility and isn't just a post player. Over time, look for her to be able to consistently stretch to the 3-point line and become a pick-and-pop '4', but someone who can also roll and use her size/physicality inside the paint as well. Defensively, she is also versatile, as she can sit down and defend the perimeter.     Lilly is one of those prospects who isn't bad right now, and she can affect most games with her size alone, but she has a lot of upside and will likely be a much different player in a couple of years. She has broad shoulders, some strength, but she also possesses length in her arms and legs that suggest she might still grow another couple of inches. She will work at running the floor in transition, but she'll need to continue working on playing lower more consistently and improving her lateral quickness. Defensively, for now at least, she is a solid rim protector, but she'll need to come out and defend ball screens more often.
