June Rankings Update: 2027 Centers | Prep Girls Hoops (2024)

Our scouts have been evaluating on the Grassroots circuit and in the gym during high school games this June. These are the 2027 centers that have boosted their ranking with excellent play during the spring and summer.

Stock Risers

Mallory Wotieshek-6-3-Grand Haven-The House 2027

Mallory has been one of the biggest West Michigan prospect risers and her dominance on the court is the reason why. Mallory won one one-on-one battles against elite forward and center prospects at BCAM, finishing inside, rebounding, and causing havoc as a shot blocker. Her defense against D1 prospects was impressive to observe and she did an excellent job of blocking shots and forcing misses without fouling. Mallory has sneaky speed in transition and passes well out of the high post. She recently earned her first D2 offer from Ferris State with an outstanding team camp. Mallory’s physical profile, athleticism, defensive dominance, and potential gave us the confidence to make her the number one ranked center prospect in the 2027 class.

Iyana was all-league for Ferndale as a freshman averaging a double-double in points and rebounds, adding two blocks on the defensive end per game. Iyana is a strong interior presence who will continually battle for offensive rebound put-backs and she has quick steps on her face-up moves to cause challenges for defenders. Her athleticism, high motor, effort, strength, and length earned her recognition as one of the best centers in the class.

New Additions

Olivia is an impressive athlete who has had an outstanding Grassroots season. Her leaping ability, physicality inside, and ability to change the game as a shot blocker is special. Olivia is a rebounding machine who protects the rim and scores in the paint. She is developing on the offensive side of the ball, but as her fundamentals improve, Olivia will become a highly pursued next-level prospect in the paint.

Cameryn is a promising prospect for DEPSA inside and she showed during the Grassroots season that she is an impact player in the paint. Cameryn uses drop steps and effective pivots to create angles to score and has soft touch on her shots around the basket. Her height and finishing moves around the rim will make her an excellent next-level prospect.

Gabby has the length, coachability, and footwork to be a next-level prospect. She has soft touch around the rim and is continuing to develop her low post moves. Gabby is difficult to score against when she protects the rim as a shot blocker. As she fills into her frame, increases her strength, and develops her offensive game, Gabby will become a center who grows into a great prospect.
