Final Player Rankings

Same as my team rankings. With the season coming to an end its time for my final player rankings of the year. Would of done this last night but, was feeling really sick, so the rankings will be done tonight.

Rankings
1. Jeronne Maymon 6'6 forward junior Madison Memorial (7)- The best rebounder I have seen this year by a long shot. Runs the court extremely well for a big man and can handle the ball. Has the edge over Mason because he can handle the ball better and Mason appears to take a play off here and there.
2. Ryan Rasmussen 6'2 guard senior Waupun (1)- Score first point guard with unlimited range, that can also get inside and score over bigger defenders. If his shots aren't falling does a great job of finding his teammates.
3. Anthony Tucker 6'5 guard senior Minnetonka MN (1)- Guard with very good size that can knock down the deep three pointers with his smooth shot. Unselfish player that does a great job of letting the game come to him.
4. Jared Berggren 6'10 center senior Princeton MN (1)- A true center that has very soft hands and an even softer touch around the rim. Is a solid shot blocker, who is also a very good rebounder.
5. Kwamain Mitchell 6'0 guard senior Whitefish Bay Dominican (1)- Ultra quick lead guard that can get in the lane at will and finish or can set his teammates up for wide open shots. Aside from his offensive game plays great on the ball defense.
6. Marquis Mason 6'5 forward sophomore Madison East (4)- Best leaper in the state. Very explosive shot blocker, fierce rebounder, and is probably the best dunker in the state. Runs the floor well and can go outside and knock down the three pointer.
7. Lucas Burns 6'6 forward senior Janesville Craig (2)- Slight edge over Cashton Craig because he does so much more then just scores. Does a great job of rebounding and passing. Really lets the game come to him and doesn't force things. Very smooth player that can really knock down the outside shot and being 6'6 doesn't hurt either.
8. Cashton Craig 6'1 guard senior Madison Lafollette (2)- Very good shooter that can really get hot. Moves very well without the ball in his hands. Forces things at times and can go cold at times from the outside. Really just a scorer doesn't rebound very well.
9. Johnnie Lacy 5'11 guard junior Milwaukee Bay View (2)- Very good scorer that can go off at any time and has an engine that doesn't stop. Has really improve in becoming more of a point guard and not just a scorer.
10. Jimmy Whitehead 6'1 guard junior Lacrosse Aquinas (4)- Most improved player I have seen this year. Handles the ball very well and can get where he wants at anytime. Has a very good mid range jumper.
11. Kieran Weed 6'5 forward senior Laconia (1)- Kid that can jump out of the gym, that can one step and dunk. Weed is a beast on the inside that is very tough to stop and has the ability to go outside and hit the mid range jumper or three pointer. Also runs the court very well.
12. DJ Fuller 5'10 guard sophomore Madison Lafollette (2)- Nearly impossible to keep out of the lane due to his low center of gravity and is killer crossover. Has a very nice floater in the lane and as of late has shown the ability to knock down the three.
13. Lance Rongstad 6'3 guard senior Eleva Strum (2)- Physically strong guard that does a little bit of everything. Can score from the outside or inside, rebounds very well, plays great defense, (as seen by shutting down Randolph's Johnson and hounding Suring's Regal) and can get up and block shots, not to mention he can throw it down pretty nice.
14. Josh Regal 5'9 guard senior Suring (2)- One of the few players that can take over a game without even taking a shot. Kid averages 20 points and 10 assist plus a game, that says it all. Really looks to get his teammates involved but, when the game is on the line he will look for his own shot and take a game over.
15. Mike Griffin 6'3 guard senior Iola-Scandinavia (2)- The moment Griffin gets over half court he's a threat to shoot the ball. Big time scorer that can knock down the three point shot with the best of them. If the outside shot isn't falling can go inside and post up smaller defenders.

Those are my final rankings on the year. I'm sure I missed a few players but, it gets hard to remmber everyone that you've seen throughout the year. Remmber I'm only taking into consider the games that I have seen a player play in. So if that player had a bad game then I'm probably not going to rank them as high as what they should be. That may be the case with Jason Ziemer, who many people think is so great but, in the one game I saw him I just wasn't that impressed. Well will see what I have for stories coming in the next coming weeks. I have some ideas to follow up the end of the season. Just haven't decided what order the stories will come in. Spell check didn't work this post, so I apologize for any spelling errors.
