First Round Player Rankings

Just like my team rankings, my player rankings will be based only on the players that I've actually seen play and the games that I saw them play in. I will rank players overall and then by class.

Overall
1. Antone Byrd 6'3 senior guard Milwaukee Washington- Can get the hoop at will, knock down the three, and plays pretty good defense. Total package.
2. Vander Blue 6'3 junior guard Madison Memorial- Right now he's out playing teammate Jeronne Maymon. Most athletic player that I've seen this year. Gets to the hoop with ease, best rebounding guard I've seen, and has greatly improved his defense and outside shooting.
3. Jeronne Maymon 6'6 senior forward Madison Memorial- Had one good game and one bad game. Stat line of the good game says it all 24 pts 16 rebs 6 asts 5 blocks
4. DJ Fuller 5'11 junior guard Madison Lafollette- Very strong lead guard. No one can stay in front of him. Finishes strong.
5. Jason Ziemer 6'4 senior forward Verona- Great overall game. Can shoot the three, handle the ball, and score with in the paint.
6. JoJo Pregont 6'6 senior forward Janesville Craig- Great defender and runs the court very well.
7. Marshall Davis 6'5 senior forward Beloit- A beast on the inside and knocks down his free throws.
8. Tyler Tillema 6'3 senior guard Randolph- Great lead guard that knows when to score or dish off to an open teammate.
9. Derek Braucht 6'6 senior forward Madison Edgewood- Forward with guard skills in that he can knock down the three or penetrate and score.
10. Jade Royston 6'0 senior guard Wisconsin Dells- Handles the ball very well and can create his own shot or come off a screen. Ultimate combination guard.
11. Terry Taylor 5'9 junior guard Milwaukee Washington- Ultra quick guard that plays intense defense, nice floater in the lane, and can shoot the three.
12. Jason Paulson 6'4 senior forward Waunakee- Unstoppable when he gets the ball in the post.
13. Kyle Goike 6'3 senior forward Janesville Craig- Big time three point shooter.
14. Jake Overlien 6'3 senior forward Baraboo- Ultimate glue guy that can do alittle bit of everything.
15. Chris Redman 6'3 senior guard Madison Lafollette- Big time scorer that can be streaky at times.

As you can see by my sophomore rankings I'm just trying to fill out the 10 spots so as long as a kid is on varsity they make the list. The top four guys are a legit top 10 though. For freshmen they are the only two freshmen I've seen but, both are legit top guys.
