Esyah Pippa-White Esyah Pippa-White 6'2" | PG Gresham | 2023 State OR , Dream Vision 16U/17U (2023 Gresham)
Pippa-White had the unique opportunity to play both 16U and 17U at the event. He focused more on facilitating in 17U, but on 16U was a bit more offense-oriented hit the game-winning layup in the 16U championship game. We mostly saw him in 17U, where he came off the bench to give guys breathers, yet had the opportunity to hit a few shots and convert a couple of layups.
Graham Eikenberry Graham Eikenberry 6'10" | PF St Andrew’s RI | 2023 State OR , Oregon Prospects 16U White (2023 Central Catholic)
Eikenberry showed great intensity both his with play on the floor and vocally. The 6-foot-9 post was tough on the glass on both ends and had some solid put backs.
Gray Thompson Gray Thompson 6'6" | SF Central Catholic | 2023 State OR , Oregon Prospects 16U White (2023 Central Catholic)
Thompson really lit things up the team’s very first game with five threes in five possessions. Things didn’t come as easy the rest of the event but he still had a solid tournament.
Logan Law Logan Law 5'9" | PG Milwaukie | 2023 State OR , Oregon Prospects 2022 (2023 Milwaukie)
Law came off the bench to provide point guard support with the older 2022 squad and held his own. He was quick off the dribble, knocked down some open threes, and had some nice finishes over bigger players in transition.
Ethan Hall, Oregon Prospects 16U Gold (2023 Summit)
Hall was intriguing in the way he could seemingly score at all three levels. He operated on the wing and at 6-foot-3 has decent size for the position.
