#13 Channel Banks 6’3” G Hillcrest Prep
Banks reclassifies from the 2017 class. The 6’3” combo guard has been the Bruins’ most productive perimeter threat all year long. A low Division-I prospect.
#15 Elijah Ifejeh 6’6” PF Hillcrest Prep
Ifejeh is a Canadian import that enrolled in Hillcrest right before the new year began. He’s a high flyer with tremendous upside, especially as he continues to grow. A low Division-I prospect.
#46 Harrison Hilliard 6’5” SF Shadow Mountain
Hilliard was not included in the last update as his eligibility was in question. However, he has made a huge impact for the Matadors as their defensive stopper and their energy guy in their starting lineup. He’s got great length and mobility and currently projects as a Division-II/NAIA D1 prospect with higher upside.
#60 Kurt Wood 6’4” SG Snowflake
Wood has been very good for Snowflake throughout his high school career. He is handling the ball more this year and looks very comfortable playing on the perimeter. A Division-III/NAIA D2 prospect.
#62 Justin Braun 6’4” SF Boulder Creek
Braun has had as good of a senior season as anyone. He’s made a lot of improvements this season, going from a reserve to a key player for the Jaguars. He may not have the upside of his brother Josh but is certainly a small college level prospect.
#69 Kaleb Hagerman 6’9” C Flagstaff
Hagerman is the third post player on a very talented frontline for the Eagles. He’s lengthy, mobile, and blocks shots. He’s raw but is someone that could make an impact down the line for a small college program.
#77 Rex Greabell 6’7” PF Estrella Foothills
Greabell has been the most productive player for the Wolves. He has dominated on the interior and been one of the premier players in AIA Division-III. He’s a Division-III/NAIA D2 prospect.
#84 Caleb Cota 6’5” SF North Canyon
Cota gained notoriety of the Christmas break as he averaged better than 35 points per game while scoring 40+ points on two separate occasions. He’s long with good size for the perimeter. A stint at the junior college level will help him to develop.
#85 Antaveus Brown 6’4” SF Estrella Foothills
While Greabell has been the focal point of Estrella, Brown has certainly done his damage as well. He’s the Wolves’ top perimeter threat and is a Division-III/NAIA D2 prospect.
#97 Devin Rottweiler 6’6” PF Buena
Rottweiler has had a pretty solid season for the Colts. He teams with Jalen Holman to make one of the top inside-outside duos in their division. He’s rebounding at a high level and could fit well at a Division-III/NAIA D2 institution.
