Dominque Clifton Dominque Clifton 6'2" | SG Eldorado | 2021 State NV 6’2 SG Hard 2 Guard 2021 (#64PHN 2021) – A bouncy R&J athlete, I want him to show me more than 1 highlight a game. The lefty looks the part of a long armed wing scorer, doing it down in AZ will certainly go a long way to opening some eyes.
Tavionte Jackson Tavionte Jackson 6'1" | PG Las Vegas | 2022 NV 6’1 PG Hard 2 Guard 2022 (#4PHN 2022) (featured image) – Perfect timing for Jackson, as I will get to see him live just days before the new rankings come out. He’s been nothing short of brilliant recently. Getting to see him play out of town against top competition, is going to tell me a lot about the type of player he is.
Mason Mich’l Mason Mich’l 6'7" | PF Desert Oasis | 2021 State NV 6’7 PF Hard 2 Guard 2021 (#42PHN 2021) – All eyes will be on Mich’l. If he is anything close to what he was the last time I saw him in Phoenix, I expect my phone to ding. The athletic big man can go inside and out, and has good explosion on his drives.
Jalen Foy Jalen Foy 6'5" | SF Canyon Springs | 2022 State NV 6’5 PF Hard 2 Guard 2022 (#20PHN 2022) – This event will go a long way in telling me how good Jalen Foy Jalen Foy 6'5" | SF Canyon Springs | 2022 State NV really is. During his high school season, he played the role of a wide bodied stretch 4. I’m looking to see if he can defend, and if so what position?
Frank Evans Frank Evans 6'1" | SG Eldorado | 2022 State NV 6’2 SG Hard 2 Guard 2022 – Frank Evans Frank Evans 6'1" | SG Eldorado | 2022 State NV is definitely going to be in the next rankings. The question remains, how high. If the combo guard shows the type of quickness and scoring ability that he’s shown all summer, then he’s certainly going to rise. If he happens to do it while leading H2G to victories then expect him to rocket up the rankings.
Victavion Conway – Fox Victavion Conway – Fox 6'6" | C Cheyenne | 2021 State NV 6’7 PF Hard 2 Guard 2021 (#43PHN 2021) – When I found out that VCF was also a volleyball player, it raised my interest. I want to see him use that Volleyball bounce this weekend. Conway – Fox has the ability to make an impact rebounding and protecting the rim.
