Stock Riser to Watch

<p>A few stock risers that have been playing well this Spring. </p> <p><strong>6’1 G Keenan Hughes || Wasatch Academy || 2023 ||</strong></p> <p>Keenan is off the radar but he has shown some solid play this Spring as he can really shoot the ball from the outside. He does have some bounce to him but he really turns head with his shooting. Impressive off the bounce and in a pick n’ roll as he can get his feet right and make some tough long buckets. In a drive and kick he is automatic. When he gets run off the three point line he uses his step back and still hurts teams as he takes what the defense gives him. Quick first step and he is agile when he gets to the rim as he uses multiple finishes to get the ball to fall. Defensively he is active and all over the floor getting tips and just causing havoc. </p> <p><strong>6’1 PG [player_tooltip player_id="1116143" first="Jaxon" last="Roberts"] || Corner Canyon High School || 2023 ||</strong></p> <p>Jaxon is a one of those under the radar PG’s that is a great facilitator. He gets his teams going and into their offense. He can also hurt you when he needs to on the offensive end as he can get to the rim and hit shots. Jaxon is a 10 and 7 type of guard that keeps the ball moving as he gets it out of his hands early always looking to distribute. </p> <p><strong>6’3 W Cassius Toiaivano || Mountain View High School || 2024 ||</strong></p> <p>Last high school season we got a glimpse of him as he will have a Spring and Summer that will help him grow. Nice high release jumper to his game. </p> <p><strong>6’1 PG [player_tooltip player_id="1128939" first="Hunter" last="Schenck"] || Weber High School || 2024 ||</strong></p> <p>Hunter has made a positive reputation for himself as he doesn’t really say much and he just hoops. He is solid on both ends of the floor and he uses his athleticism on both ends as he hits tough shots and he defends well and gets in those lanes. Looks like he will be running with Utah Stars the rest of the way as he is a great addition to a team that could use more ball handling and play making ability. Brings a lot of shooting to a team that can find him on some swings. </p> <p><strong>6’8 W [player_tooltip player_id="1298532" first="Jaxon" last="Johnson"] || Alta High School || 2024 ||</strong></p> <p>Jaxon has been playing at a really high level this Spring as you can see so much overall growth in his game. Defensively he can hold his own against the best in the country as he is that guy that can switch ooff and guard multiple positions. He moves his feet extremely well for being so big and he covers grounds and contest shots. Fundamentally sound as he rebounds and is a threat all over the floor and filling in lanes. Jaxon stretches the floor with his shooting and is at his best when he is active moving and cutting because he finds open pockets in the defense. Jaxon is a D1 talent. Would not be surprised if he gets an offer or two soon, </p> <p>&nbsp;</p>
