Bradey Henige Bradey Henige 7'0" | C Cactus | 2024 State #192 Nation AZ 6’9 PF/C 2024 Cactus
Henige is an extremely skilled FR who is averaging a double double for Cactus. He finishes well around the rim and competes on the glass. Most impressive, especially for his age, is his passing ability. He has a great feel for the game despite his youth. His size mixed with his skill set and coordination make him an extremely interesting prospect going forward.
Noah Amenhauser Noah Amenhauser 7'0" | C Estrella Foothills | 2023 State #270 Nation AZ 6’9 C 2023 Estrella Foothills
Amenhauser is another 4A sophomore big who is dominating through this portion of the season. He has a solid skill set and a soft touch around the rim. He is a capable mid-range jump shooter as well who has shot the basketball well from the foul line. His upside is extremely high. He will continue to improve and will be a monster for the rest of his high school career.
Andrew Camacho Andrew Camacho 6'1" | CG Peoria | 2023 State AZ 6’0 SG 2023 Peoria
Camacho missed a couple of games due to injury. However, there is no question that Camacho is one of the best scorers in all of 4A. He is a consistent shooter from deep and mid-range. Further, he is extremely crafty in getting to his spots. Defensively, he is a charge magnet who is constantly looking to make impact plays.
Anthony Seumanu 6’2 SF 2024 Marcos De Niza
Most underclassmen who have success are able to do it due to their ability to shoot the basketball from deep. Seumanu is a capable shooter from deep which helps. However, he is making a living off of getting inside the 3 point line in order to create for himself and for others. He has a bright future in a program that does a great job developing prospects.
Masai Dean Jr Masai Dean Jr 5'11" | PG Cholla | 2023 State AZ . 5’9 PG 2023 Cholla
Dean is a skilled shooter from deep who is more than willing to let it fly. He has the green light and is shooting it at an extremely high clip despite his youth. He is a capable playmaker as well who demands opponents to guard him from further out than they are comfortable. Dean will cause a lot of headaches for opponents for the rest of this season as well as for years to come.
