Continue ReadingThe Class of 2024 is getting better and there are some players that have really taken a leap in this rankings addition. While these players are still young and have plenty of time to cement their stock in the rankings this is going to continue to change with so many players getting the opportunity to play at a high level.
#6 PHU – 6’10 Stephen Osei Stephen Osei 6'10" | C Utah Prep | 2024 UT || RSL Academy ||
Coaches like working with raw talent. Coach David Evans is probably really excited about this Canadian import as he is not only athletic and raw but he is 6’10 and that is a lot to work with. Stephen has a few things going fo rhim as he is athletic like we mentioned befor but he also runs the floor well.
#7 PHU – 6’0 Jordan Barnes Jordan Barnes 6'4" | PG Olympus | 2024 State UT || Olympus High School ||
When you watch Jordan play you can see that he is playing chess while other PG’s his age are playing checkers. He is able to see the game differently as he reads the defense and takes what they give him. This is an ideal time for him to be this head strong and savvy because he has a big and a shooter by his side this year. Jordan has that quick first step that he takes advantage of on his straight-line drives. When he is met by defenders in the paint he can spin off and change directions very well. With an elite game and a lot of room for improvement he is one of the premier PG’s in this class.
#8 PHU – 6’7 Paul Beattie Paul Beattie 6'9" | PF Farmington | 2024 State UT || Farmington High School ||
Paul is a late bloomer here but he showed some flashes at the end of the year as he was able to get more playing time. While playing club ball he took more steps forward as he became more active and was playing a bit more fearless. This helped him get a bit tougher. When Paul works on a consistent jumper and works on his left he will give himself more opportunities to score.
#9 PHU – 6’6 Grayson Brousseau Grayson Brousseau 6'6" | PF Lehi | 2024 State UT || Lehi High School ||
Grayson is often forgotten as a basketball prospect because he is a multi-sport athlete and he excels at both we might add. Grayson is a tough cover and he is active, Grayson is more than just a dirty work type of a player picking up the slack on rebounds, setting picks and getting some easy put-backs. Grayson is skilled and he will be a big part of the success that they have at Lehi for the next few years.
#10 PHU – 6’5 Sefa Brown Sefa Brown 6'5" | SF Highland | 2024 State UT || Highland High School ||
Sefa rounds out the Top 10 and he is another dual-sport athlete as we have seen with a few other players across the state with new coaches putting their young talent to use. Sefa will be used a bit more often at Highland as a mobil SF that loves to get up and down and play up-tempo look for Sefa to pick it up production wise but also start flying and finishing above the rim some more.
