As the High School season quickly approaches, we are excited to roll out our first update of the year for the Class of 2026 Nevada Player Rankings, with some notable changes throughout the Top 100. Standout Winter and Preseason performances have reshaped the landscape, as players continue to build their résumés and make their case among the state’s best. This update sets the stage for what should be an important stretch in the recruiting process for this talented group of seniors.

As always, our evaluation process is fluid and ongoing, built on multiple viewings and discussions to get the most accurate feel for each player’s abilities. It’s worth noting that while some players show rapid improvement, this doesn’t suggest that others have regressed—player development is simply a journey with peaks and valleys. As the season unfolds, new names will continue to surface, expanding the universe of top prospects in Nevada. In addition to our player evaluations, our scouts—both in-state and nationally—have been in constant dialogue, comparing notes and making adjustments based on the latest insights to ensure the rankings are as up-to-date and accurate as possible.
