Sometimes you just have players that know how the game goes. They know how everything works around them, they know what their teammates do best, and they are willing to sacrifice everything so that those around them can be successful. We see glimpses of that in Maddison Riser of Clear Lake High School and Lady Martin Bro’s AAU. Coming down the court she knows where to go, she knows where her teammates are going to be and when they are going to be there, she works ridiculously hard to create space for those around her, and she never gives up on a play. There is a lot to like out of Riser from an outside point of view. If she continues to work on her weaknesses, she is going to be someone we continue to hear about over the next couple of years.

Clear Lake High School is on the up and up these past few years and that is not going to change any time soon. They continue to bring in impressive and deep Classes, that will impact their future for years to come. Someone out of their 2029 Class with some respectable talent is PG, Maddison Riser Maddison Riser 5'3" | PG/SG Clear Lake | 2029 IA . Riser has a fast handle, quick feet, natural athleticism, understandable knowledge of the game, and a higher motor than most. When she gets going downhill, she is incredibly tough to stop. Especially in transition. As long as the CL system works, these next few years we are going to hear a lot about what they are bringing to the hardwood.

Clear Lake always has some ballers on roster. Another one that will be joining them the Lions out of the 2029 Class is PG/SG, Maddison Riser Maddison Riser 5'3" | PG/SG Clear Lake | 2029 IA . Riser is a smaller PG that understands to play off of two feet and how to use her fakes in a variety of different ways. She can get into the middle, onto two feet, and pump fake the defense into an open shoot attempt or she can pass-fake all over the court and turn those fakes into crafty assists. It’s all just situational but in every situation, Riser has impressed so far. This AAU season she will compete with her Lady Martin Bros UAA team before taking the high school floor. If she plays to her full capabilities, watch out.
