<h2>Buka Mbegbu 6'5" PF Central</h2><p><strong>Current Ranking:</strong> #22</p>
<p><strong>Previous Ranking:</strong> #30</p>
<p><strong>Notes: </strong>Mbegbu had a strong summer, joining D1 Nation in July. The physical post presence looked to make up for the absence of D1 Nation star Gabe McGlothan who missed two events with an injury. Buka’s footwork in the post and ability to use his body to get a positioning advantage serve him well. If he continues to sharpen his ability to finish and defend bigger post players then he will be in good shape.</p>
<h2.George Faull 6'7" PF Flagstaff</h2><p><strong>Current Ranking:</strong> #24</p>
<p><strong>Previous Ranking:</strong> #66</p>
<p><strong>Notes: </strong>Faull is one that continues to impress. He had a string of nice performances in the fall, particularly his performance at the Area Codes Super 80 Showcase. The 6’7” forward is made in a similar mold to 2016 Flagstaff teammate Brett Morrow. He is a hard working post player with a hard motor and a knack for grabbing rebounds.</p>
<h2>Andres Mayberry 5'9" PG Red Mountain</h2><p><strong>Current Ranking:</strong> #38</p>
<p><strong>Previous Ranking:</strong> #49</p>
<p><strong>Notes: </strong>Mayberry showed during the month of July that he can lead a team and he is best when the pressure is on. In multiple games Andres made big time shots and drives in addition to getting stops when D1 Nation needed it most.</p>
<h2>Rajhan Billingsley 6'4" PF Desert Vista</h2><p><strong>Current Ranking:</strong> #46</p>
<p><strong>Previous Ranking:</strong> #61</p>
<p><strong>Notes: </strong>Billingsley had a strong spring but really showed his versatility during the month of July. The 6’4” forward is physical, can put it on the floor for his position, and can finish at the rim. He is also a very good rebounder.</p>
