Included are several of 6A’s top scorers so far this season like [player_tooltip player_id="861095" first="Kalim" last="Brown"] (24.3 ppg), [player_tooltip player_id="861087" first="Esyah" last="Pippa-White"] (22.8 ppg), and [player_tooltip player_id="861097" first="Malik" last="Brown"] (18.0 ppg). [player_tooltip player_id="1232163" first="Jared" last="Sucher"] scored 32 points in his season debut going into the tournament and should be on top to pile on even more over the next few days.</p> <p>Teams like Tigard - [player_tooltip player_id="1256638" first="Douglas" last="Bailey"] and [player_tooltip player_id="1256624" first="Sawyer" last="Wolf"] are also ones to watch in addition to the Brown twins - and Cleveland with [player_tooltip player_id="865367" first="Sean" last="Chris Tresvant"], [player_tooltip player_id="1232162" first="Christian" last="Green"], [player_tooltip player_id="861090" first="Jackson" last="Cooper"], and [player_tooltip player_id="861093" first="Jamel" last="Pichon"], are junior heavy and we’ll likely see these guys again in next year’s LSI. The next update of the Class of 2023 rankings will be made around the New Year so big performances from the likes of Beaverton guard [player_tooltip player_id="1201007" first="Brady" last="Rice"], Tualatin guard [player_tooltip player_id="1256645" first="Josiah" last="Lake"], and Jesuit guard [player_tooltip player_id="1256714" first="Isaiah" last="Crane"] in particular will continue to enhance their rise up the list based on what they’ve already done so far this year.</p>
