6’3 McCaden Adams McCaden Adams 6'3" | CG Pleasant Grove | 2022 State UT || Pleasant Grove High School || 2022 ||
McCaden is one of the top sleepers and underrated prospects in that 2022 class. One thing that makes him different is his length and simple finishing ability. He doesn’t get all flashy with the ball, he is a rip and go guard that keeps the ball away from defenders, he plays with a high motor and he crashes the boards on both ends of the floor. He is not easy to defend although his moves are simple. He is hard to keep off the boards as well. He has a shot that must be respected and he plays physical if needed. Adams just knows how to get it done.
6’3 Logan Prince Logan Prince 6'3" | CG West Jordan | 2022 State UT || West Jordan High School || 2022 ||
Logan is a quiet player with some big time playing ability. He has great size at the guard position and he can shift over from lead guard to off guard. He can hurt you in the corners or the wings. Logan lets the game come to him and he usually makes the right read. Undervalued guard with great vision. Should be a fun year for him at West Jordan as they enter Region 3.
6’5 Trey Evans Trey Evans 6'5" | PG RSL Academy | 2023 State UT || RSL Academy || 2023 ||
Trey is one of the better floor generals in the state as he just sees the game different. Really impressed with his ability to control tempo and at the same time he is an impressive guard that hits those open catch and shoot looks. With various D2’s courting him look for Trey to excel with two other running mate guards with him this season.
6’3 Kevon Doe || East High School || 2023 ||
Strong and quiet demeanor but loud and physical game. Kevin has a great motor and he has that down hill type of game. Nice at finishing around the rim and he has a shot that keeps defenses honest.
6’3 KJ Miller KJ Miller 6'3" | CG Layton | 2024 State UT || Layton High School || 2024 ||
KJ is a scoring guard that can handle and he can sit out in the perimeter and shoot as well. KJ is tough and he gets to the rim. Really like his complete game and in time he will be one of those top guards vying for a roster spot at the college level.
6’3 Hunter Hansen Hunter Hansen 6'4" | PG Fremont | 2024 State UT || Fremont High School || 2024 ||
Smooth and calm game with Hunter as he does a little bit of everything. Like his size and quick first step handling the ball. With an improved shot Hunter will be able to score with some of the other big dogs in 6A.
