Remember, these are not player rankings but how much they impact their team along with the talent they go against during the season.
Here are the next eight:
Arman Madi Arman Madi 6'7" | SF Brophy | 2023 State AZ (Brophy Prep) (Pictured)
-A rare freshman in Broncos history who was on the varsity this season. He will most likely get his opportunity to play heavy minutes next season.
Patrick Herrera (Skyline)
-A scoring guard who plays multiple sports lost his entire starting-5 besides him. He should take his almost 13 ppg and go up a notch this season.
Matthew Fan Matthew Fan 5'11" | PG Scottsdale Christian Academy | 2021 State AZ (SCA)
-Looking for the top PG in 2A, it is probably Fan. He is a pure PG but also can score it. He avg 13.6 ppg and 4.4 assists. Throw in the fact that Jordan Moody Jordan Moody 6'0" | SG Scottsdale Christian Academy | 2020 State AZ graduates with his 18.8 ppg, Fan may be the most impactful player in 2A next season.
Jake Schleifer Jake Schleifer 6'7" | PF Trivium Prep | 2021 State AZ (Trivium Prep)
-If Fan isn’t the most impactful, it may be Schleifer. He is the top returning scorer, rebounder and shot blocker on his team and will be one of the better 2A players in state. He will try and lead the Crimson Knights back to the state championship game (and hopefully win it this time).
Leo Scott Jr Leo Scott Jr 6'1" | CG Parker | 2022 State AZ (Parker)
-Moving from 2A to 3A, Scott will be one of the top 3A players next season. He already avg 19 ppg 6.7 rebs plus 1.5 assists and steals per game. Which included a 31-point performance versus Phoenix Country Day.
Alex Gaylor (PV)
-Essentially missed the entire season with the transfer rule, then when he came back, he unfortunately got injured in first game. He’ll be a huge factor for a possible Trojans playoff run.
Mason Knollmiller Mason Knollmiller 6'2" | SG Highland | 2022 State AZ (Highland)
-Averaged 7 points and 5 rebounds but had seven games of double figures including 18 points vs Perry.
William Dubuc William Dubuc 6'5" | PF Desert Mountain | 2022 State AZ (Desert Mountain)
-With a couple seniors moving on, it opens up big PT for Dubuc. He is a gifted rebounder and will score inside and out.
