6’5 W Tucker Englebright Tucker Englebright 6'5" | PF Wasatch | 2022 State UT || Wasatch High School || 2022 ||
Tucker had himself a game as he scored 22 points in his 1st game. Previously tucker had only averaged 1 PPG but he did have a career high 15 prior to this game against Woods Cross.
6’3 W Kaden Ericksen Kaden Ericksen 6'2" | CG Syracuse | 2023 State UT || Syracuse High School || 2023 ||
Last season Kaden put up 6 PPG and this year he seems to be willing to take over the scoring load. He also has the skill to do so as well. Will be a bright spot over at Syracuse High School.
6’0 G Noor Aweyso || Granger High School || 2023 ||
Granger always has a guards that can score and this young 2023 guard Noor is next up. Noor put up a solid 17 points and he is just getting started from deep as well.
6’4 G Mckay Tanner || Lone Peak High School || 2022 ||
Although a lot of people expected McKay to simply take over the scoring over at lone Peak it is surprising that he looks so comfortable doing so. Put up to solid scoring games for the Knights. We expect this to be a trend.
6’2 PG Kaden Hopkins || Westlake High School || 2022 ||
Kaden is getting his turn to shine, he put up a solid 16 points in a big win and thumping of Lehi. Kaden was not only scoring he was distributing and pushing the tempo. Great defender as well.
6’2 Truman Burninghham || Timpview High School || 2022 ||
As Timpview is starting to get it’s new system going Truman has really picked it up. With a 25 and 14 point performance in his first two games. This could be good news for both him and the team if this trend continues.
