<p>So many new players are starting to turn heads and we are looking. Section 7 has brought out some new names and faces that are intriguing. Here is another list of players that we should be paying attention to this summer. </p> <p><strong>6’7 F Blake Rawson || American Fork High School || 2024 ||</strong></p> <p>Blake has really turned the corner since the high school season come to an end. He is doing a lot of the little things you want players to do on their own. Blake has exceptional vision and he makes really good cuts to the basket. Post game continues to develop as does his perimeter game. He has more development to come which bodes well for him as he will likely bolster his stock slowly throughout the summer. </p> <p><strong>6’3 G [player_tooltip player_id="934027" first="Mason" last="Bendinger"] || Woods Cross High School || 2023 ||</strong></p> <p>Mason is picking up where he left off as he still finds ways to get to his spots and score the ball. He has really been working on his footwork as he gets to those spots and works the defender till he gets the looks he wants. He rebounds well and he can release pressure with the ball in his hands. When his shot from the outside is falling he is an extremely dangerous player out on the floor as it opens up the floor for everyone on his team. Mason is having a good showing at Section 7. </p> <p><strong>6’2 PG [player_tooltip player_id="1116143" first="Jaxon" last="Roberts"] || Corner Canyon High School || 2023 ||</strong></p> <p>It’s all about reps and development and if Corner Canyon continues to put Jaxon in a position to be pushed he will improve as he is now. Jaxon has the athleticism and handle to really make things easier for his teammates to get open looks or one on one looks. When he is out of control and gets in the air without a plan he reverts back to his sophomore year. This kid is a major player if he just keeps moving forward. Good shot this weekend and he had an extra gear at Section 7. Could be a player to really look at to play at the next level for the right school. </p> <p><strong>6’7 SF [player_tooltip player_id="1115954" first="Reece" last="Dent"] || Wasatch High School || 2024 ||</strong></p> <p>This kid has really earned some attention. He is not the quickest but his skill makes you over look the lack of speed. He makes some big time quality moves and he has great counter moves when the defense takes away the first option. Not only can he get you off the dribble and take what you give him. Reece can also stretch the floor with good shooting. He’s good with his back to the basket and he also defends and rebound with some obviously great fundamentals. Bets move is him rolling defenders as they try to get in-front of him as he drive. He has a strong base and is able to finish with contact. </p> <p><strong>6’7 SF/W [player_tooltip player_id="1278448" first="Dean" last="Rueckert"] || Timpview High School || 2026 ||</strong></p> <p>Another great prospect to watch in that talented Class of 2026. This kid will start varsity as an incoming freshman and he has the game to back up any hype coming his way. He has a good shot and when he is running the floor he is running with a purpose. He can finish inside and he can also beat players off the dribble. Major upside and he is a D1 prospect in the making. </p>
