Continue ReadingThe HS season is over and we are diving into the individual player rankings for the freshman. We start with the point guards.
There will probably be a lot of movement from now until the next HS season since many will train, play in big events, possibly get more exposure than their smaller schools to fully be evaluated versus some of the best in the West.
Here we go:
1. Mark Brown Jr Mark Brown Jr 6'2" | PG Bella Vista Prep | 2023 State AZ (Mountain Pointe)
-A big time shot maker who has speed with the ball. Makes plays for his teammates as well.
2. Jason Fontenet Jr Jason Fontenet Jr 6'6" | CG Bella Vista Prep | 2023 State #255 Nation AZ (St. Mary’s)
-A bigger guard who has great lineage and talent. His pull-up is becoming a weapon as is his defense.
3. Kota Benson Kota Benson 6'0" | PG Mesa | 2023 State AZ (Baboquivari)
-The least known player on the list has a lot to like. The lefty can sling it from deep plus set the table. He carried his team to the Final-4 as he was given the ball since day-1 on varsity.
4. Isaac Kaps Isaac Kaps 6'0" | PG Highland | 2023 State AZ (Highland)
-An athletic defensive minded lead guard can get downhill.
5. Matthew Henry-Harrison Matthew Henry-Harrison 5'10" | CG AZ Compass Prep Black | 2023 State AZ (Buckeye)
-A scoring lead guard that is starting to find that happy middle of scoring and facilitating.
5 others:
1. Vincent Delano Vincent Delano 6'1" | CG Bella Vista Prep | 2023 State #292 Nation AZ (St. Mary’s)
-A big time shooter who can make plays for others. He has a nasty pull-up and should get varsity minutes next year on the loaded team.
2. Demarion Anderson Demarion Anderson 5'9" | PG Agua Fria | 2023 State AZ (Youngker)
-One of the top passers in the class has good open court speed and quickness with the ball.
3. Ryan Ginsberg Ryan Ginsberg 6'1" | PG Desert Mountain | 2023 State AZ (Desert Mountain)
-Another top-tier passer in the class was tearing it up on JV and will most likely be a huge factor next year on varsity.
4. Jamaal Dean Jr Jamaal Dean Jr 5'8" | PG Shadow Ridge | 2023 State AZ (Ironwood)
-A strong pure PG gets downhill and can pull-up. Got some invaluable minutes on varsity this year.
5. Davion Butler Davion Butler 5'10" | PG AZ Compass Prep | 2023 State AZ (Cesar Chavez)
-A jet quick scoring lead guard with a feathery jumper and speed with the ball was also on varsity playing important minutes.
6. Jayden Sleeper Jayden Sleeper 5'8" | PG Deer Valley | 2023 State AZ (Deer Valley)
-One of the quicker guards who may have the deepest range in the class.
