Zereoue Williams 6’7 2021 F Mountain Pointe
Williams is a very big player and is super strong. He may not be the most skilled but his physical attributes make him capable of holding his own against more skilled players. He did a really good job defending the low post against some really good post players. Williams is ridiculously strong and that keeps posts from getting into the paint and positioning they want. Williams also did a really good job collecting defensive rebounds.
Micah Pierce 6’6 2022 F Desert Vista
Pierce is a super athletic shot blocker and rebounder. His offensive game isn’t quite there yet, but he is still young and has time to develop in that area. As of right now, I love him as a defensive minded forward. Pierce has really good athleticism and leaping ability. This made it easy for him to collect boards and turn away numerous shot attempts.
Derick Kaps 6’0 2021 G Highland
Kaps is a super tough perimeter defender. He can really get into his opponent and apply pressure to them. Kaps is very fast and very athletic, making it very hard to get around him. He has a very quick first step so good luck trying to blow by him.
Jacob Leslie 6’5 2020 F MALC
Leslie did a great job of securing the paint for his team. He had a couple of blocks but honestly not that many people went up against him. They usually preferred to dish the ball out. That disrupts an offense and that is exactly what Leslie did.
