6’3 G Manase Mangala || Judge Memorial High School || 2023 ||
Quick catch and release form the three-point line. He can really light it up from the wing and those corners. Great floor spacer out there in the perimeter. Good range too from beyond the arc. Strong body that allows him to mix it up down in the paint. Could be a small school prospect because he can play that 3 guard position.
6’5 W Jaxon Kerekes Jaxon Kerekes 6'5" | CG Riverton | 2023 State UT || Riverton High School || 2023 ||
Jaxon will be a name that really pops this high school season. He was getting it going this past ear but look for him to really take it to another level. With positional size he will have the opportunity to play on a team that goes small at the 4 or play the 3. With Jaxon’s shooting ability and play making ability he really showcases that three-level scoring he has. Could be a name on top of the leader boards in scoring in 6A.
6’2 G KJ Jenson KJ Jenson 6'0" | SG Bingham | 2023 State UT || Bingham High School || 2023 ||
KJ has a solid game and he missed a big portion of the AAU season due to an injury but he is a player that will keep Bingham towards that Top 10 or so in 6A as he can really score from outside. KJ had been really improving all facets of his game before his injury. Look for him to come back stronger physically and off the bounce and with his handle as well. KJ has that D3, NAIA maybe D2 game but he can really continue to develop.
5’10 G Dylan Anderson || Manti High School || 2023 ||
Don’t sleep on the talent in the small rural schools in Utah as Dylan Anderson is poised to possibly double his production from deep as he could be a 50 three-pointers made with the way he can shoot it.
6’6 W Jackson McKee Jackson McKee 6'6" | PF Box Elder | 2023 State UT || Box Elder High School || 20023 ||
This kid could take 5A by storm this season as we expect him to be scoring 20 PPG and he could be a double-double machine with the way that he attacks the boards on both ends of the floor. He is not a volume shooter but he is an efficient shooter and can make you pay from deep. Jackson could be an NJCAA type of player but for sure an NWAC player.
6’4 SF Alex Brey || Woods Cross High School ||2023 ||
Alex will likely be one of the bigger producers that improves from last season as he heads into his senior year. Alex is an undersized SF but he finds ways as he can shoot from deep and he can really get crafty in the paint and around the rim. If he can keep his head he could really help WX make another deep run as they will have a lot of players that return around him that pack a scoring punch.
