Dondrae Fair Dondrae Fair 5'11" | CG Jefferson | 2022 OR , Jefferson – Ranked #15
Another one of Jefferson’s standouts that is likely to pursue football in college, Fair lends his athleticism to the Demos hoops squad as well. Similar to Williams he battled some injuries but when he was able to play, he provided ball-handling and some scoring off of the bench. He’s a good finisher around the hoop and gets after it on defense.
Jordan McCarty Jordan McCarty 6'0" | CG Silverton | 2022 State OR , Silverton – Ranked #16
Silverton had a bona fide scorer/distributor in David Gonzales David Gonzales 5'11" | PG Silverton | 2020 State OR , but McCarty slotted in just fine beside the Corban-bound senior. A natural leader – not a surprise as he’s not only the coach’s son but the quarterback on the football team – the sophomore showed this season that he could score as well as pass and defensively, he often took on the other team’s top scorer.
Malik Ross Malik Ross 6'0" | CG Tualatin | 2022 State OR , Tualatin – Ranked #18
Another football standout is Ross, who at 5-foot-11 may lack raw height but he has plenty of strength and athleticism. When we saw him at the PrepHoops Top 250 Expo in the fall, he was outright unstoppable getting to the basket where he scored at will over bigger players.
Jae’sean Pete Jae’sean Pete 5'9" | CG Grant | 2022 State OR , Grant – Ranked #26
Pete has seen his role grow each year in the Grant program. Yet another football player – seems to be a common theme in the Class of 2022 – the 5-foot-9 guard has good quickness and the ability to be a good individual defender. He came on late in the year, especially with his shot.
Junior Sleezer Junior Sleezer 6'2" | CG South Medford | 2022 State OR , South Medford – Ranked #30
At 6-foot-2 and fairly well built, Sleezer offers size in addition to skill in the backcourt. He’s adept at getting to the basket and has enough of an outside shot to keep defenses honest. It will be interesting to watch how his game develops as he’ll take on more of the offensive load next year.
