Osiris Grady Osiris Grady 6'7" | PF Coronado | 2023 #195 Nation UT 6’7 PF Coronado 2023 (#2PHN 2023) – At this rate we might have to start calling Grady a wing. He looked good this weekend, putting the ball on the ground and getting to the rim. Always a fluid rim runner, Grady sprinted the floor and consistently gained early post up position against opponents.
Jazz Gardner Jazz Gardner 7'0" | C Los Altos | 2023 State #85 Nation CA-S 6’11 C Los Altos 2023 – Gardner is a huge sophomore with an interesting mix of Banger and stretch to his game. He loves to use his frame to dislodge opponents before turning over his left shoulder for his jump hook. Although he did not shoot the ball particularly well, he showed nice form and did knock down several tough fadeaway jumpers.
Khaman Maker Khaman Maker 7'1" | C Trinity | 2024 State #127 Nation NV 7’1 C Desert Valley Prep 2024 (featured image) – Being 7 tall feet has it’s benefits. Maker’s sheer presence made offensive players rethink their shot attempts. He was able to impact the game with his ability to block shots and grab rebounds. The young Center also showed remarkable improvement on the offensive end as he displayed a soft touch around the rim. He needs to improve his hands, but at the rate he is developing we could be looking at one of the top players in the nation very soon.
Tommy Brascia Tommy Brascia 6'8" | PF Durango | 2023 State NV 6’7 PF Durango 2023 (#9PHN 2023) – Was the best rim runner at the camp. Brascia puts tremendous pressure on the defense with his ability to change ends. When he wasn’t getting out in transition, the 6’7 forward banged down low for rebounds and tough putbacks. He was rewarded with a selection to the top 60 game.
Andrew Meadow 6’7 PF West Ranch 2023 – A skilled 4 with good athletic ability. Meadow generated buckets in a variety of ways. He showed the ability to play pick and pop basketball, grab in traffic rebounds and finish strong at the rim.
Zach Davidson 6’7 PF Mater Dei 2023 – Used his size and length to challenge and alter shots. Davidson played with a good motor and competed on both ends of the floor. He was active when going for offensive rebounds, and did a good job of blocking out and securing the basketball off the defensive backboard.
