Parsa Hadjighasemi Parsa Hadjighasemi 6'4" | CG Carson | 2022 State NV 6’3 SG Carson 2022 (#16PHN 2022) – This young man is really on the rise. The smooth shooting sophomore shot 38% from behind the arc. The ultimate heat check guy, Hadijighasemi had 8 games this season where he buried at least 4 3’s.
Christopher Thacker 6’0 SG Douglas 2021 – I don’t want Thacker to get left out of the shooter conversation. Dude hit 7 3’s against Wooster this year and had 11 games with at least 3 3 pointers.
Corbin Dagons Corbin Dagons 6'5" | PF Legacy | 2022 State NV 6’5 PF Legacy 2022 (#24PHN 2022) – Underatted Sniper! Dagons is one of the best stretch bigs in the state. People look at his size and length and think of him as a post, however, when he comes off the bench he’s letting fly from deep. He shot a remarkable 42% from behind the arc last season.
Lowell Francis Chan Lowell Francis Chan 6'6" | SF Sierra Vista | 2021 State NV 6’4 SF Sierra Vista 2021 (#55PHN 2021) – Chan is definitely a name you want to remember. He put together an impressive season for Sierra Vista last season, and it included shooting 36% from behind the arc. It wasn’t a small sample size either, Chan got up over 150 3’s last season.
Peter Iliev 6’1 SG SLAM 2021 – One of the most accurate shooters in the state Iliev shot it a 43% clip last season for Slam. When he’s on, he can be deadly accurate as he proved with a 5-5 game against Boulder and a 5-6 3 point performance against Somerset Skypointe.
Cameron Reese 6’5 SF Moapa Valley 2021 – Reese is one of the taller shooters on the list. The 6’5 wing made a remarkable 58 3’s last season for MV, while shooting it better than 40%
Noa Del Poza 6’2 SG SLAM 2021 – Been hearing a lot of chatter about this kid lately. It may be simply because he has a flamethrower. He had an amazing 3 game stretch against Virgin Valley, Skypoint, and Moapa where he went 14 for 26 from behind the arc.
