Reason for the Ranking (Top 75)

Time to revisit the Class of 2021 rankings and adjust to account for the player’s growth or stagnation.  Rankings are subjective and PrepHoops.com ranks purely upon potential and where the player will be at their basketball peak.  Production factors in only when helping prove the potential is greater or lesser.  Why did we rank these guys?  Why are they at this spot?  Take a look at several Class of 2021 prospects and learn a little about their reputation. 71 Trey HamiltonTreyHamilton6'5" | SFMcCallie | 2021StateTN 6’5" / SF McCallie       72 Aingar WilliamAingarWilliam6'11" | CKing's Academy | 2021StateTN 6’11" / C King’s Academy       73 Collin GoreCollinGore5'11" | PGUpperman | 2021StateTN 5’11" / PG Upperman Tennessee Tigers     74 A.J.

Can score in a variety of ways.  The tall wing boasts a sterling 4.0 G.P.A. at one of the finest academic institutions in the state. https://twitter.com/TreyHamilton03/status/1233223662368628737?s=20 #72 Aingar WilliamAingarWilliam6'11" | CKing's Academy | 2021StateTNs (The King’s Academy) Extremely raw. Can’t teach height (6’11").  Traditionally pitted against feeble big opponents making his evaluation very flaky.   #73 Collin GoreCollinGore5'11" | PGUpperman | 2021StateTN (Upperman) Natural leader.  Understands the game at an elite level. Quicker first-step developed in the last year.  Gore plays wonderfully within the structure of a system. All-Region.  (September 2018). Read his evaluation from that event.  Entering with the deserved reputation as scorer, Colin absolutely suffered from an over-abundance of guards.  The deep, talented crop of guards in attendance was at once exhilarating and frustrating.  With so many guards on hand quality scorers like Colin are going to get bypassed in the offensive “flow.” Standing 5-foot-9 Colin projects as a scoring point guard.  Don’t forget Colin was named District 8-AA Freshman of the Year over fellow campers Matthew SellsMatthewSells6'3" | SGLivingston Academy | 2021StateTN (Livingston Academy), Isaiah AllenIsaiahAllen6'0" | PGUpperman | 2021StateTN (Upperman) and Alex RushAlexRush6'7" | PFUpperman | 2021StateTN (Upperman).  He showed flashes of that Sunday.  Gore’s best combine station was the lane agility where he quickly traversed the rectangular lane and returned to the starting point much better than the day’s average. Colin Gore keeps his base low and gets point to point with precision. His movement is purposeful and swift.  Gore showed crisp handle and a nice transition from dribbling into his shot.  The technique of both skill elements reveals plenty of pre-combine practices.  He projects as a point guard capable of hitting open shots.   #74 A.J. PruittA.J.Pruitt6'2" | PGBearden | 2021StateTN (Summit) Diminutive point guard with jet-quick feet.  Will play college football. Began his high school career at Brentwood Academy. Plays DB for Summit High School football. #75 Harper NealHarperNeal6'0" | PGKingston | 2021StateTN (Kingston) Following the 2019 AAU spring-portion, Team Passion Director named Harper the 16u Team MVP.   “Harper is a point guard that checks many boxes; good slasher and finisher, drive and dick guy, good athlete, he shoots the ball well, rebounds, defends and just competes with an undeniable grit.” Harper’s lower body balance is wonderful.  The sharpshooting guard projects as a point guard at the NAIA-D2 level.  Harper can create his own shot deftly. Harper NealHarperNeal6'0" | PGKingston | 2021StateTN needs to bulk up to be successful in the lane at the college level. Smooth, flawless, repeatable shooting motion. Peruse the complete 2021 rankings. Follow @CourtneyHoops90 and @AndrewForce8.
