Styles Phipps Styles Phipps 6'1" | PG St Mary's | 2024 State #182 Nation AZ St. Mary’s
A tight handle flashy point guard is a fun watch. He controls the pace of the game and was tough to stop with his scoring ability this season. He has a nasty pull-up off the dribble and hits catch-3’s. His ability to change directions and speeds makes his game go.
Rowan McKenzie Rowan McKenzie 6'2" | PG Boulder Creek | 2024 State AZ Boulder Creek
A strong two-sport stud made huge strides with his approach and game. Credit the BC coaches for putting the ball in his hands this season. He always seems to make the correct reads and scores it easy. He is an above the rim athlete and has some of the deepest 3pt range on the list.
Gabe Pickens Gabe Pickens 6'0" | PG Dream City Christian | 2024 State AZ Millennium
Probably the top “pure point guard” in the class. He has undeniable strength to go along with his tight handle. He consistently touches the paint and then will throw a dart to a cutter, open shooter or dump it off to a post player. He can also shoot it to the 3.
Donovan Beard Donovan Beard 6'2" | PG Dobson | 2024 State AZ Dobson
A long scoring lead guard is a natural scorer. He is a three level scorer who loves the mid-range game but hits the 3 and will get to the basket with his burst. I am assuming he will asked to handle the ball way more next season.
Isaiah Bronson Isaiah Bronson 6'2" | PG Phhoenix Prep | 2024 State AZ Gilbert
Another scoring guard should have the ball in his hands way more next season. He has the top pull-up from mid-range in the class and the lefty can slither in the lane. He is improving as a play maker and he plays with confidence.
AJ Thomas AJ Thomas 6'4" | PG Eduprize | 2025 State #292 Nation AZ Eduprize (Pictured)
A scoring lead guard changes speeds well to keep defenders off balanced and has good size for position. He can hit the 3 and uses his size to score in the paint. He can advance pass and thread the needle.
Aiden Dunne Aiden Dunne 6'2" | PG Liberty | 2024 State AZ Paradise Honors
A sharp shooter with the ability to handle it and make plays for others. He shoots it at a high percentage from the field and arc. He will be asked to handle more of a workload next season.
Isaiah Hill Isaiah Hill 5'11" | PG Premier Prep Tucson | 2024 State AZ Pueblo
Hill is already crushing it in Tucson. He averaged 17 ppg and had some monster games including 42 vs CDO and 24 versus the top Tucson team Salpointe Catholic. He is quick, fast and is hard to keep in front of him. He can shoot it plus make plays.
