Continue ReadingWe have officially hit the midway point in the season and I recently released a mid-season superlatives article. However, I thought we should go more in depth and recognize some more players that have had great seasons so far. Here are the Top Forwards in 4A…so far.
Shaun Wahlstrom (Estrella Foothills 2019)
Call him Mr. Stat Sheet Stuffer! Look at this kids stat line! 20 points per game, 2.8 assists per game, 12.7 rebounds per game, 1.9 steals per game, and 1 block per game. Talk about filling out the score book! He is currently ranked 4th in scoring, 1st in rebounding, and 1st in double doubles.
Otis Frazier (Buckeye Union 2019)
You want another stat sheet stuffer? Look no further than Buckeye’s Otis Frazier. He is currently averaging 21 points per game and 12 rebounds per game. Frazier is ridiculously athletic and very tough to guard. He gets to the rim at ease and has greatly improved his shooting.
Majok Deng (Salpointe Catholic 2019)
One of the best, if not the best shooting forward in all of 4A. He has a super smooth jump shot, with a high release point. Deng is averaging 18.6 point per game, 7.8 rebounds per game, and 1.3 steals per game this season. Look for Salpointe to make another state playoff run behind the remarkable play of this young man.
Darius Rollins (Palo Verde 2019)
Rollins is a little bit of an unknown to most people, however is talent should get him more respect. He is very athletic and strong. He is a huge part of that Palo Verde team. Rollins averages 12 points per game, 12 rebounds per game, 2 steals, and 2 blocks per game. This kid does a little bit of everything.
Jackson Ruai (Amphi 2019)
Ruai is usually a guard but was told that he runs a lot of 3 for Amphi, explaining why he is on this list rather than the Top Guards list. Either way, Ruai deserves some recognition for his outstanding play this season, leading his team to an undefeated record. Ruai currently averages 14 points per game, 3 assists per game, 7 rebounds, 3 steals, and 2 blocks per game. Defensive player of the year?
