6’1 Jordan Toscano Jordan Toscano 6'1" | PG Bingham | 2021 State UT (Bingham)
Jordan was able to put up some good numbers despite some injuries. 9 points, 3 rebounds and 5 assist. We some flashes of what he can really do when he had some major stat lines against Herriman, Fremont and Wasatch. Don’t be surprised if he is one of the first players in the state next season to notch a triple-double. Jordan is crafty with the ball and can penetrate in finish against size and contact. He has underrated quickness that enables him to get him open in the perimeter and in the mid-range as well. Jordan does have the game that translates to the next level at the highest level. He should be a big reason Bingham will be good again next season.
6’8 Luke Armstrong Luke Armstrong 6'8" | C Cedar City | 2021 State UT (Cedar City)
Luke had three double-doubles last season and that stat could increase with and extra year to gain strength and work on his conditioning. Luke could rack up the looks as he plays beside another player that garners a lot of attention in the front court. Luke impacts the game as a shot blocker and a player that is tough o guard one on one. Although Luke has talent he will be able to improve through the years to come. Last seasons 9 & 6 could easily turn into 12 & 8 wich is a solid stat line considering the talent on his roster.
6’5 Makiah Tarver (Judge Memorial)
Makiah is a player that has quietly put up some impressive numbers. Maybe due to the fact that he plays in 3A, but he is showing that he has the talent to play against anyone. This past season he reached double-figures in half of his games and next season he should be much improved in his consitent play as he could reach double figures each night. Makiah doesn’t step outside too much but that is a part of his game that could be much improved that would help him as well. Look for Makiah to have a breakout year as he should be scoring in double-figures each game.
