Donatello Tupper Donatello Tupper 6'4" | SF Roosevelt | 2022 State OR (2022 Roosevelt) – Tupper has been one of the top athletes in the state ever since he started high school at Roosevelt so obviously he makes this list. The 6-foot-4 wing glided to the basket and finished above the rim on many occasions and he likely led the event in dunks. But Tupper wasn’t just flashing athleticism as he also showed skill by knocking down open threes and also creating off the dribble for scoring opportunities.
Amare Rolle Amare Rolle 6'4" | SF Westview | 2023 State OR (2023 Westview) – Rolle is long, lean, and moves well. He didn’t get many touches on offense in the action we saw so he utilized his natural athleticism to help out on the boards and on defense. Later on we looked over and spotted the 6-foot-4 junior getting a chance to showcase himself on one breakaway, where he flew in to throw down a two-handed power slam.
Bryce Dyer Bryce Dyer 6'5" | PF North Medford | 2022 State OR (2022 North Medford) – Dyer isn’t necessarily a high-flyer, but he’s athletic in the sense in that he’s strong, tough, and plays with a non-stop motor – all things opponents had a hard time contending with. He was constantly battling on the boards and bullying people around while finishing drives to the hoop.
Noah Dewey Noah Dewey 6'6" | SF Crescent Valley | 2022 State OR (2022 Crescent Valley) – Dewey is a versatile athlete – he’s also getting recruited for baseball – and he showed a little bit of everything at the event, whether it was finishing at the rim or stepping out and hitting open threes. At 6-foot-7 he can play multiple positions on both sides of the floor and was like a swiss pocketknife player with the various things he did all day.
QShawn On’gele QShawn On’gele 6'4" | CG Cleveland | 2022 State OR (2022 Cleveland) – Ongele’s build alone attracted attention as he’s got good size and strength for a guard. The 6-foot-4 swingman played hard on both ends, using his strength to finish plays around the hoop and be a factor on the defensive end. Ongele hasn’t played the past couple of years due to injury but is all set for 2021-22.
Kamar Benbo Kamar Benbo 6'3" | SG Parkrose | 2024 State OR (2024 Parkrose) – Benbo is a young run-and-jump type athlete who should only get more explosive as his body develops. He scored in multiple ways whether it was getting to the hoop or stepping out and hitting jumpers. He should be an impact player at Parkrose this season.
Leron Richards Leron Richards 5'11" | PG Hillsboro | 2022 State OR (2022 Hillsboro) – We only got a little glimpse of Richards but one thing was clear – he had bounce. He was one of Hilhi’s top guys last season and should be in the limelight once again his senior campaign.
