High school career

He averaged 22.5 points and 9.5 rebounds as a sophomore, clearly cementing him as the best player in his school.Podziemski also made the first team All-State in his sophomore season. Podziemski didn’t stop as he only continued to get better through his junior year where he averaged 27.6 points and 9.2 rebounds and also repeated his first team All-State selection.

By this point, Podziemski had developed into a player with a good shooting form and an ability to take players off the dribble with his quickness. He was also an elite rebounder as indicated by his gaudy rebounding numbers and shot a stellar 45% from 3 making 92 of his 205 attempts.

It was in final year however that Podziemski took his game to another level. He averaged 35.1 points, 10.0 rebounds, 5.6 assists and 4 steals a game while being named Wisconsin Mr. Basketball, an incredible achievement for the young man.
