<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The 2028 rankings updated today and there are 72 freshmen covered. There's no better time than now to discuss ascending players from the curated list. These girls mentioned are certainly raising their stock. Below are 5 names from the catalog that climbed the '28 rankings. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Use code <strong>MBG30</strong> for 30% off your first purchase of any subscription.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["351272"],"_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-673fbb5a18772"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='351272' first='Kaylis' last='Diaz'] (2028) | 5'9 SF/PF | Mansfield </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Kaylis brings tremendous versatility while being a highly productive player. She doesn't require the ball although she can impact the game at multiple spots on the floor. Diaz is well-grounded forward that offers solid shooting, stellar offensive rebounding and decisive decision-making skills to capitalize on 1-on-1 matchups. She is also a defensive monster that will out hustle almost everyone on the floor. The completeness oozes out of Diaz and that makes her a standout player. Kaylis was ranked 29th last update, she is currently ranked #15. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["975866"],"_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-673fbb5a187e5"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='975866' first='Kiera' last='Paradis'] (2028) | 5'5 PG | Larwrence Academy</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Kiera is an incredible playmaker that has a tendency to attack the lane. She embraces contact met at the rim and absorbs the impact while drawing fouls. Paradis gets the ball out her hand in any instance, regardless of the defense that may be draped on her. She rarely gets flustered and that makes her a confident player on the floor. Her defensive skillset is a bit underrated due to her abilities not always showing up on the stat sheet. The off-ball activity Kiera shows while flying around or attempting to help her teammate on the court is striking. The Lawrence Academy point guard was coming in as the #21 player in the class, she is now ranked #14. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["975783"],"_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-673fbb5a1884f"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='975783' first='Sophia' last='Goncalves'] (2028) | 5'9 CG | MacDuffie </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The MacDuffie combo guard had a ton of momentum from the offseason that helped her ascension in the rankings. Goncalves is a creator that has a high celling. The shooting off the dribble jumps off the page, which is a unique quality Goncalves shows. Her fearlessness is something that isn't replicated amongst her peers. Sophia takes the shots that others simply wouldn't, or better yet can't. The daring qualities to take and make shots molded Sophia into a top talent in the class. Last update she was ranked #32, now Goncalves is at #23 in the class. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1041804"],"_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-673fbb5a18892"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1041804' first='Jules' last='Stevenson'] (2028) | 5'5 PG | Phillips Andover</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Jules is an exceptional talent that has come on the scene making a lot of noise. Last update she wasn't ranked, but Jules' game made it so she couldn't be denied from being spotlighted. The 3-level scorer is one of the premier players in the entire class. Stevenson makes extraordinary plays look easy and the athleticism she flashes just elevates her stature amongst her peers. The defense shown is solid in various scenarios. She gets low in her stance, ready to pounce at any second. Ballhandlers must be wary around the quick hands and feet of Stevenson. She is currently ranked #20 in the entire class. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["975863"],"_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-673fbb5a188d2"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Jhene Fortunat (2028) | 6'2 PF/SF | Lawrence Academy </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Fortunat is one of the most intriguing players in the '28 class. Her skillset makes her standout due to her robust frame combined with the uniqueness of being extremely agile at her size. The polished skill she possesses at 6ft+ while being able to play multiple positions is phenomenal. There's no question as to why Jhene is getting some big-time attention already. She can play big, operate from the high-post or push the ball in transition as a point forward type of player. On the defensive side of the ball, she's a terrific shot-blocker and she holds her own on the block. Jhene makes it hard for players attempting to get in the lane with her lateral quickness plus her ability to player vertically. She can even hang with perimeter players on possessions with her nimbleness. Fortunat wasn't included on the last rankings, but she's now an indisputable player ranked #4 in the entire class. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->

The 2028 rankings updated today and there are 72 freshmen covered. There's no better time than now to discuss ascending players from the curated list. These girls mentioned are certainly raising their stock. Below are 5 names from the catalog that climbed the '28 rankings.
