2023 class individual rankings
Last year this time we had 77 players to rank for the 2023 class.
We added 32 players to get the total to 109.
All 32 players added were discovered after the HS season and are now blossoming at the right time.
Like the senior and junior class, many will see their rankings drop.
Our goal at PrepHoopsAZ is to try and recognize anyone who may play college basketball.
We are trying to give them the proper exposure, especially in these crazy times with a virus still out there, forcing college coaches to only be allowed to read articles and watch film.
2023 updated rankings:
Notes:
1. Tru Washington Tru Washington 6'3" | CG AZ Compass Prep | 2023 State #61 Nation AZ , Noah Amenhauser Noah Amenhauser 7'0" | C Estrella Foothills | 2023 State #270 Nation AZ and Cody Williams Cody Williams 6'8" | SF Perry | 2023 State #25 Nation AZ are the Top-3 for 2023. Washington holds a big ASU offer but the other two are still waiting for theirs to come, which will be sooner rather then later.
2. 11 players were added to the Top-50 led by athletic Mathiang Maker Mathiang Maker 6'7" | SF Dream City Christian International | 2023 State AZ , who is the younger brother of Makur Maker Makur Maker 6'11" | C Hillcrest Prep | 2020 #10 Nation AZ .
3. Of the 109 players ranked, there are 28 PG’s, 23 SG’s, 16 CG,s, 24 SF’s, 17 PF’s and only 1 Center.
4. In the Top-50 there are 13 PF’s, 12 SG’s, 11 SF’s, 7 CG’s, 6 PG’s and 1 Center.
4. 3 players are currently nationally ranked in the Top-150. ( Tru Washington Tru Washington 6'3" | CG AZ Compass Prep | 2023 State #61 Nation AZ -#61), ( Ky Green Ky Green 6'6" | SF Liberty | 2023 State AZ -#84), ( Mark Brown Jr Mark Brown Jr 6'2" | PG Bella Vista Prep | 2023 State AZ -#148)
5. I think Noah Amenhauser Noah Amenhauser 7'0" | C Estrella Foothills | 2023 State #270 Nation AZ , Cody Williams Cody Williams 6'8" | SF Perry | 2023 State #25 Nation AZ , Jason Fontenet Jr Jason Fontenet Jr 6'6" | CG Bella Vista Prep | 2023 State #255 Nation AZ , Arman Madi Arman Madi 6'7" | SF Brophy | 2023 State AZ , Kevin Patton Jr Kevin Patton Jr 6'8" | SF Mountain Pointe | 2023 #130 Nation CA-S , Isaac Hymes Isaac Hymes 6'9" | PF Phhoenix Prep | 2023 State AZ and Mathiang Maker Mathiang Maker 6'7" | SF Dream City Christian International | 2023 State AZ all have a chance to be added at certain points in their HS careers to the national rankings. Without the live periods, every single player didn’t get seen, so it was very hard to get discovered nationally.
6. This class is very top heavy but many of the others not in the Top-10 are late bloomer type of players and may blossom over the next 3 years and will definitely challenge the Top-10. Plus others will be added from out of state once we view them from the local Grind Session teams.
