I have 21 breakout seniors to comment about. (15 currently ranked and 6 not ranked)
Here are the last six potential breakout seniors who are currently unranked:
Not ranked Rai’Shun Wilson Rai’Shun Wilson 6'0" | CG AZ Compass Prep | 2021 State AZ (AZ Compass Prep)
-An explosive athlete that very few know about but is busting out this month in recent mini events. The lefty is powerfully built, gets downhill and plays above the rim plus can shoot it and make plays for teammates.
Not ranked Eric Ramirez Eric Ramirez 6'7" | PF Cibola | 2021 State AZ (Cibola)
-A new player to the database has good skill from inside and out. He has length, a good IQ and rebounds well in area.
Not ranked Matthew Buechner Matthew Buechner 6'8" | C Chaparral | 2021 State AZ (Phhoenix Prep)
-The big post player has good strength and hands to rebound. He can score it in the post plus step out to the 3pt line.
Not ranked D’mari Johnson D’mari Johnson 6'6" | PF Phhoenix Prep | 2022 AZ (Buckeye)
-The thicker post player is a little undersized but strong, has long arms and is skilled deep in the paint. He is making strides with his perimeter touch but works best around the basket. He recently received his first offer from local NAIA school Park University.
Not ranked Kyle Johnson Kyle Johnson 6'5" | PF AZ (Shadow Mountain)
-He has slowly broadened his game out to the perimeter. He has become more consistent shooting the deep ball then in the past. He rebounds well in his area and can work down low.
Not ranked William Betteridge William Betteridge 5'11" | PG Chaparral | 2021 State AZ (Chaparral)
-The sharp shooter had some big games in the recent Pangos league. He gets his shot off quickly and needs very little space. He is smart and moves without the ball and looks for his spots to launch. Like Jevon Humphrey Jevon Humphrey 6'0" | SG Chaparral | 2021 State AZ , he will also be a big boost to this years Firebirds team.
