Tanner Resch Tanner Resch 6'0" | PG Hamilton | 2021 State WI — 2021 — Sussex Hamilton
In the absence of Patrick Baldwin Jr. Patrick Baldwin Jr. 6'9" | SF Sussex Hamilton | 2021 State #2 Nation WI , I thought that Resch did a great job of taking care of the scoring responsibilities for Sussex Hamilton. The point guard scored 70 points in two games this week and proved that he is capable of leading his squad. College coaches: it isn’t too late to show interest in Resch’s talent.
Kamari Mcgee Kamari Mcgee 6'0" | PG Racine St. Catherine's | 2021 State WI — 2021 — Racine St. Catherines
After a really impressive summer playing with Wisconsin Playground Club, it looks like McGee is showing no signs of slowing down. The Racine St. Catherines point guard is the type of prospect that fills that stat sheet. In a win over Martin Luther, McGee scored an efficient 23 points, grabbed seven rebounds, and dished out five assists.
Cameron Palesse Cameron Palesse 6'3" | CG Waukesha West | 2021 State #249 Nation WI — 2021 — Waukesha West
Palesse never seems to have an off game. In a victory over Arrowhead, the Valparaiso commit dropped 37 points. The Waukesha West point guard has a terrific mid-range jumper, which makes him almost impossible to guard when he gets on a roll. Expect Palesse to continue to put up big numbers.
Donald McHenry Donald McHenry 5'11" | CG Milwaukee Academy of Science | 2021 State WI — 2021 — Milwaukee Academy of Science
I am not sure that McHenry gets enough credit. The lanky guard is an underrated playmaker who has all of the tools to succeed on both sides of the ball. In a close loss to a very good Oak Creek team, McHenry scored 32 points on 12 of 15 shooting from the field. The 2021 point guard has a lot of upside at the next level.
Jackson Paveletzke Jackson Paveletzke 6'1" | CG Kimberly | 2022 State WI — 2022 — Kimberly
Making a strong case for why he should be Fox Valley Association player of the year, Paveletzke scored 35 points in a win over Oshkosh North. Depending on the game, the Kimberly prospect can play either point guard or shooting guard. When it is all said and done, it looks like Paveletzke could be one of the best players to come out of Kimberly.
Preston Ruedinger Preston Ruedinger 6'1" | PG Lourdes Academy | 2021 State WI — 2021 — Lourdes Academy
After scoring 14 points in his first game of the week, Ruedinger returned the next game and scored 36 points in a blowout win over Ripon. Winona State has already offered the point guard. If he keeps playing at a high level, I expect more college programs to show interest.
Parker Lawrence Parker Lawrence 6'0" | PG Hortonville | 2021 State WI — 2021 — Hortonville
Lawrence is a prospect that seems to fly under the radar in Wisconsin’s 2021 class. The St Norbert commit scored 26 points for his squad in a tough double-overtime loss to Kaukauna. If Lawrence continues to improve, he is set to have a great college career.
Mason Dorn Mason Dorn 6'1" | SG Seymour | 2021 State WI — 2021 — Seymour
Dorn broke records on Friday night. The 2021 point guard scored 51 points in a blowout win over Shawano. Dorn is an unbelievable scorer who can get buckets from all three levels with ease. He doesn’t get a lot of attention because he plays for a smaller school. However, if he continues to play this well, Dorn will make headlines.
