After seeing more than 70 high school games already this season, I figured it would be a good time to mention some players who I felt have taken a significant step forward over the last year.

Keep in mind: this isn’t every player I’ve liked this year, or anything like that. I tried to limit it to players who felt in a specific range: someone I’d seen play previously (in the summer or beforehand), and have now seen again recently, who have clearly made steps in their progression as a player. 

(It goes without saying this doesn’t include players I haven’t yet seen this year, players I felt were already performing at a high level, or players who I don’t have a point of comparison with from earlier in their high school careers.)
