Continue ReadingWith the release of the rankings, there is always a lot of buzz and feedback created in the basketball world. I have always found that rankings serve as another way to add fuel to the fire for players wanting to reach the next level and showcase their talent. Below are players that College Coaches should be investing in now as 2024 stock risers. We already know a lot about the top-ranked players but let’s dig deeper and talk about a few players ready to move up the rankings ladder this upcoming season:
Julian Granville Julian Granville 6'3" | PG NSU University | 2024 State FL 6’3 PG – NSU University – Under the leadership of Coach Ron Oliver this Montverde transfer has a ton of upside. Julian had a strong showing at the recent Battle Showcase playing elite competition and is poised for a breakout year. Julian is a floor general who knows how to keep his teammates active and get the ball through tight spaces. Julian is lightning quick and a strong finisher at the rim. I was very impressed with his overall game.
Elijah Reynolds Elijah Reynolds 5'10" | PG Holy Trinity | 2024 FL 5’10 PG – Holy Trinity – Elijah is a playmaker with strong court vision and a great overall feel for the game. He has a quick first step and can beat you off the dribble quickly. Elijah is also very tough on the defensive end and plays with a ton of intensity. I really like his overall style of play and see him entering the Top 20 conversation in 2024 very soon.
Noah Cutler Noah Cutler 5'9" | PG Charlotte | 2024 FL 5’9 PG – Charlotte High School – Noah who recently transferred to Charlotte is in great hands with the solid coaching staff at Charlotte. Noah will be playing alongside other top players in the area and this will be a team to watch for this upcoming season. Noah is very fast which enables him to get to the rim with ease and he has a very consistent shot from beyond the arc. Noah has elite court vision and moves great without the ball. I expect the move of attending Charlotte to really pay off for Noah and the school as they will be amongst the best in the area.
Amare Sanders Amare Sanders 6'2" | CG Gulliver Prep | 2024 FL 6’2 PG – Gulliver Prep – I have been watching this young man play since his days on the elite Miami City Ballers travel team. Amare is the type of player that is a matchup nightmare for the opposing team. He can get to the rim with ease and uses nice combination moves to get where he wants. He will be playing under the leadership of Hall of Fame legend Ray Allen and has great pieces around him to thrive in Coach Allen’s system. This will be a player and team to watch this upcoming season!
Reginald Reinhardt Reginald Reinhardt 6'0" | PG Wellington | 2024 State FL 6’0 PG – Wellington – Reggie who recently transferred from Dwyer will be a key piece for the powerhouse Wellington High School this upcoming season. Reggie can score at will and has one of the best mid-range shots I have seen. Reggie goes hard every possession and brings a ton of energy to the floor. Reggie was one of the best players in the 2024 class this past season on the Prep Hoops Circuit and I believe is amongst the best in Palm Beach for the 2024 class. His stock and interest at the next level will continue to rise.
