2025s Making Noise

The rising Sophomore class have been making a name for themselves this AAU spring and several new names have come on our radar. Here’s a look at some 2025 prospects boosting their stock this spring. Briar Griffin Briar Griffin 6'0" | PG Bowling Green | 2025 KY , Bowling Green - Bowling Green has to replace 2022 Mr Basketball Turner Buttry Turner Buttry 5'11" | PG Bowling Green | 2022 State KY and Griffin will likely get a crack at it early in his Sophomore season. Briar is a very crafty lead guard who knows how to run a team and pick his spots when he looks for his own offense. Griffin may not be the next Buttry but he’s shown he can create for himself and others. Griffen Derry Griffen Derry 6'1" | SG Dixie Heights | 2025 State KY , Dixie Heights - Derry had a huge game at the KBC State Tournament where he scored over 40 in a tight loss to Power Circle and earned praise as a lights out shooter. Dixie will be in the mix for the 9th region title next season and Griffen should be a rotation player for them as a 3 point specialist. Santonio Waide Santonio Waide 5'10" | PG Woodford County | 2025 State KY , Woodford County - Speaking of Power Circle, Waide has been a consistent double figure scorer for them all spring. He’s shifty and quick which allows Santonio to get into the paint and score or kick to open teammates. Woodford should be a factor in the 8th region for the next few seasons and their 2025 class is absolutely loaded. Austin Sperry Austin Sperry 6'3" | SF Breathitt County | 2025 State KY , Breathitt County - Austin has been among the top scorers in the mountains for a few seasons now and has been making a name for himself on the 15u EYBL with Team Thad this spring. He’s an explosive athlete who has had a couple of really nice dunks this spring. Moving from 2024 to 2025 looks like it’s paying dividends for Sperry in the long run.
