Class of 2027: Top Five

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>After around two months of collecting thoughts and feedback from folks, we have released the updated Class of 2027 rankings as the incoming seniors start their final season of high school basketball. Today and tomorrow, we will look at some seniors and highlight what they bring to the floor. On Wednesday, we will release the updated 2028 rankings. The 2029 rankings will be up on Friday, and the 2030 watchlist will be released the day before the high school season starts next Tuesday. In the meantime, tonight we will look at the top ten players in the updated 2027 rankings.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["764935"],"_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"},"alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6af25894d8ca0"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">The Stevens Point guard has emerged as one of the country's most talented guards. Seubert is comfortable playing in either backcourt role, scoring off the dribble or moving away from the ball. She can handle the ball under pressure and make things happen. She is also a confident three-level. Her athletic tools also suggest she could become a solid perimeter defender once she gets to Iowa City and begins her college career as an Iowa Hawkeye in about a year.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["764918"],"_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"},"alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6af25894d8d41"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">The Edgewood guard is one of the most responsible lead guards we've seen in Wisconsin. The Madison native has been a reliable creator since entering high school, and led her Crusader team to two state tournaments, winning a gold ball in 2024. Miller has also shown she can attack off the dribble and score from all three levels. Her ability to create and protect the ball will help her earn playing time at the next level as she applies her trade a few blocks away from Edgewood at Wisconsin. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["751287"],"_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"},"alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6af25894d8dc0"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">The Waunakee guard is dynamic and flies around the floor on both ends. Bryan is a hard-nosed player who digs in, rebounds better than you may expect, and helps her team earn extra possessions. Her athleticism will also help her stay in front of Big East guards and could help her earn minutes early in her college career. Offensively, she has improved every year at the high school level, and I expect she'll continue to grow at Butler University.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["764903"],"_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"},"alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6af25894d8e39"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">The Kimberly wing has played an integral role for the Papermakers over the past few seasons. Van Vonderen excels in the high post, attacking off the dribble or making reads to get her teammates open looks. Her coaches trust her to read defenses, and she's rewarded that trust by helping her team win a few conference championships and a state championship. She is a versatile piece who could play multiple roles at the next level once she starts her collegiate career at Wisconsin.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["751246"],"_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"},"alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6af25894d8eb8"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The Oshkosh native is an excellent athlete who will be an intriguing player to follow at the next level. In my opinion, Alic is the most athletic wing in this class and can do things others physically can't. She has the talent to make plays on both ends and shows flashes of the brilliant player she could become if she puts it all together and finds consistency. There is nothing she can't do on the floor, and she could be a steal for the DePaul Blue Demons.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
