Continue ReadingThe updated 2022 rankings are officially here. With every new update, players rise up the rankings as they show new aspects of their game. That is the case with this update as some players shot up the rankings. Here are the top stock risers from the 2022 rankings update.
Nick Koch Nick Koch 6'1" | PG Don Bosco Prep | 2022 State NJ , 5’10 PG Don Bosco Prep
Koch saw his stock rise higher than any other prospect as he jumped 33 spots in the rankings. The 5’10 guard does not force the issue in the half court and makes good decisions with the ball in his hands. Koch has a nice handle as he is able to beat his defender off the bounce and get to the rim. He moves his feet well on the defensive end and can knock down jumpers from distance. Koch has had a good spring campaign with the NJ Panthers, which should carry over into the spring.
Rasheer Fleming Rasheer Fleming 6'7" | PF Camden | 2022 State NJ , 6’7 PF Camden
Fleming took a big jump in the rankings as he went up 30 spots. The 6’7 forward runs the floor hard and likes to finish above the rim. Fleming has a solid face-up game and is quite comfortable handling the ball on the perimeter. He has the athleticism to defend multiple positions and skies for rebounds on both ends of the floor. Fleming’s stock is continuing to rise and it should only go up this summer as he plays for the NJ Scholars.
Jacob Barnett Jacob Barnett 6'7" | SF Olympus Prep | 2022 State NJ , 6’7 SF Olympus Prep
Barnett is in the same boat as Fleming as he also went up 30 spots. The 6’7 forward attacks the basket hard and is a good finisher around the rim. Barnett has a nice handle and is unafraid of drawing contact. He is capable of hitting jumpers from behind the arc and is an underrated passer. Barnett’s ability to make plays on the offensive end will only improve his stock as he suits up for the NY Jayhawks this summer.
Logan Blake Logan Blake 6'7" | PF Delaware Valley Regional | 2023 NJ , 6’6 PF Delaware Valley
Blake is in the middle of a breakout AAU season for the NJ Panthers as he jumped up 22 spots. The 6’6 forward plays with good footwork down low and knows how to score around the basket. Blake has a strong frame which he uses to draw contact and has a nice touch around the rim. He is a good passer out of the post and slides his feet on the defensive end. Blake picked up an offer from Millersville at the end of April and it could be the first of more to come after the summer season.
Scott Gyimesi Scott Gyimesi 6'6" | SF Rumson Fair-Haven | 2022 State NJ , 6’6 SF Rumson-Fair Haven
Gyimesi has been playing well this spring as he has seen a jump of 21 spots. The 6’6 forward is capable of either forward spot as he has a strong frame to finish around the basket, but can also put the ball on the floor from the perimeter. Gyimesi is unafraid of contact when attacking the basket and has a nice touch on his jumper. He attacks the glass with a purpose and is an underrated defender. Gyimesi is a versatile forward prospect who is looking to start the summer season strong with the NJ Shore Shots.
