6’6 Andre Mulibea (East High School)
One of the most versatile players in all of Utah. Would be a shame for a local college to pass up on him. He is a Division 1 player that has improved his shooting. He is solid inside and has a great motor. Andre can guard 2-4. He is one of those players that can go out and get you a bucket. He has the body and skill to get minutes right away at the college level.
6’6 Tyler Roberts (Woods Cross High School)
Tyler is a solid W/F that has great face-up moves down in the post and he has developed and underrated shot from the outside. He has great athleticism paired up with soft hands. His left handed finishes and moves down low can create problems for a lot of teams. Great IQ and motor on both ends.
6’5 Robert Whaley (Bountiful High School)
Undersized as a PF but he is not undersized in any other way. The 230 lbs. of him down low are a lot to handle. Boi Boi is a great free-throw shooter and continually improves his outside game. He has a great up and under game on the blocks. Once he is deep in the post players with more height than him still don’t have a chance.
6’9 Zach Visentin (Springville High School)
Zach has soft hands and has great touch inside as well. He recently committed to Idaho State. He has great footwork but it can improve. He runs up and down the floor really well considering he is 260 lbs.
6’6 Ammon Kaufusi (Highland High School)
The two sport athlete is starting to come into his own getting some playing time. Ammon could turn into a double-double machine. He has a great feel for the game and has speed to get up and down the court. He plays more like a stretch 4 but could eventually turn into a true wing.
6’8 Jaden Brownell (Alta High School)
Jaden is one of the better stretch bigs in the state. He has a great feel for the game. If he can put on a few more pounds of muscle he will turn even more heads than he already is turning. With his size and versatile play he can be a match-up nightmare.
