6’3 SG Luke Leatherwood || Bingham High School || Utah Premier || 2022 ||
Luke played a lot of minutes for Bingham last season and he provided a lot of different skill sets to his high school team that will translate to the next level as well. Luke has an excellent jump shot and he is a major threat from beyond the arc. He could get hot in a hurry. What makes him a prospect that has coaches intrigued is that he has some major athleticism. In the open floor he can get up and finish above the rim. In traffic he is starting to have more confidence in his ability to finish in traffic.

6’9 SF Malick Diallo Malick Diallo 6'9" | C Wasatch Academy | 2024 State #131 Nation UT || Juan Diego Catholic || Utah Mountain Stars || 2024 ||
Malick Diallo Malick Diallo 6'9" | C Wasatch Academy | 2024 State #131 Nation UT was a player that we knew was going to blow up. Playing in a small classification didn’t help his stock but playing grassroots basketball and attending camps have really elevated his stock. Malick is a shot altering 4 that can rotate and block shots and simply be a presence on the blocks. His game with his back to the basket is nice as he uses a long drop step that cover a lot of ground and he is patient, he won’t always go up on the first move. His footwork is still developing. Malick has a nice hook over both shoulders. Keep an eye on him moving forward.

6’9 SF Jaxon Heiden Jaxon Heiden 6'9" | PF Alta | 2022 State UT || Alta High School || Salt Lake Rebels || 2022 ||
Jaxon is one of the sleepers in this class. When he is healthy he is a problem. He has a great catch and rip that is fluid and allows him to beat players off the catch and to the rim. He can get up and finish and he is going to be a force over at Alta. Jaxon could be a 3 or 4 depending on what is needed at the next level. He can continue to defend threes and see how he can hold his own at the next level, but at the high school level he can manage 3-5. Jaxon isn’t done yet, he will continue to garner attention and pull more offers.
