#7 – Moroni Seely-Roberts Moroni Seely-Roberts 6'6" | SF Lincoln | 2023 State OR (2023 Yamhill-Carlton)
Seely-Roberts put up one of the most impressive freshman seasons statistically in recent memory. The 6-foot-5 sophomore dominated 3A opponents in the post but was able to step out and flash some perimeter skills a bit. He got some travel ball experience playing with A-Train Magic Oregon as well as CTR, a team put together by his mom, Yamhill-Carlton head coach Heather Roberts. The key in his development will be the expansion of his game onto the perimeter.
#8 – Malachi Seely-Roberts Malachi Seely-Roberts 6'8" | SF Lincoln | 2023 State OR (2023 Yamhill-Carlton)
Twin brother of Moroni, Malachi had a solid freshman season but started to flash his potential this summer. His performance at a Pangos camp squarely put him on the radar as a potential stretch-four type of player with his ability to knock down threes from beyond the NBA three-point line. At 6-foot-7 and possibly still growing, Seely-Roberts’ physical maturity will be one to watch as he continues to further develop his perimeter skills.
#13 – Riley Williams Riley Williams 6'7" | PF Central Catholic | 2023 OR (2023 Central Catholic)
Williams spent last season on Central Catholic’s freshman team but he’s physically developed into a monster this off-season. Now standing at least 6-foot-7 and weighing well over 200 pounds, the sophomore is a load in the paint but still moves and runs the floor well. Williams is still honing his offensive skills but should be an immediate varsity contributor on the boards and defensively in 2021.
#15 – Ty May Ty May 6'6" | PF Philomath | 2023 State OR (2023 Philomath)
May had a solid freshman campaign at Philomath where he immediately stepped into the starting lineup. At 6-foot-6, he’s largely playing down low at the 4A level but he has the ability to step outside to knock down shots or create a bit off the dribble. May runs the floor well in transition and finishes at the rim.
#21 – Graham Eikenberry Graham Eikenberry 6'10" | PF St Andrew’s RI | 2023 State OR (2023 Central Catholic)
Central Catholic has plenty of talent in their younger classes and Eikenberry is a prime example. At 6-foot-7 and possibly still growing, he has good length down low and he’s fairly fluid in his movements in both the half and full court settings. Eikenberry has good footwork and is working on getting tougher and more confident int he paint.
