6’1 SG Kaden Cox Kaden Cox 6'0" | SG Ridgeline | 2022 State UT , Ridgeline High School
Coming off of an injury that sidelined him early in the basketball season Ridgeline is a different team. Kaden has given them a different dimension. Kaden hit 6 three-pointers in his last outing against Logan. He is starting to get his legs under him. He has added a new look to his game as he is moving really well without the basketball as he cuts and positions himself in positions to score. His going to the basket ability has improved as well.
6’0 PG Talon Valdes Talon Valdes 6'0" | PG Juan Diego | 2021 State UT , Juan Diego High School
With so much speed Talon is able to put defenders in difficult positions as they expect him to go to the basket but then he hits them with a pull-up. Talon continues to play the passing lanes if the various zone defenses he is running for his school. When he gets out and runs there is no catching him as he can get straight to the rim almost uncontended. Great prospect that can get to the rim. He’s putting up 20 PPG, 3 APG to go along with 3 steals a game.
5’10 PG Coleman Ford Coleman Ford 5'10" | PG Timpview | 2021 State UT , Timpview High School
Coleman has been solid all year. He is a PG that can score but he looks to get his teammates going. While putting up 10 PPG he is shooting well from the outside at a high percentage. He had 20 points on 5 three pointers against Orem in his last outing. The impressive part of his game is his 5 assist a game as he knows that if his team score they win. Coleman can really run a team. He is a great on ball defender that can pick up full-court. Could land on a NJCAA school close to home with this type of play.
5’10 PG Kobe Schriver, Roy High School
It seems as if Kobe has been quite this year but on the contrary he has been consistent. In his last game he had 21 points and hit 5 three-pointers. Really impressed with his willingness to go rebound the basketball as well. This is when he is dangerous because he can push the break and get others involved. Still one of the top pick n’ roll PG’s out there because of his ability to nail the long ball.
6’1 PG Jordan Toscano Jordan Toscano 6'1" | PG Bingham | 2021 State UT , Bingham High School
The heady PG has been taken what the defense gives him this year. He is really locked in on the mid-range jumper coming off of screens or in pull-up situations. He is a player that can find you when you least expect it so teammates need to be ready for a pass that might be coming their way. Averaging 12 PPG against a tough schedule to go along with 5 assist a game. Jordan has some nice skills that will translate to the next level.
