Ethan Levin Ethan Levin 5’9″ | CG Kent Denver | 2023 State CO is a lightning-quick guard who has great instincts moving without the ball in his hands. Ethan is a quick cutter who does a good job of quickly relocating to the three-point line after his cut. From three-point land, he is a microwave scorer who can get hot quick. In Kent Denver’s run and gun style of play, Ethan gets plenty of shots and finds his rhythm, allowing him to have huge scoring performances.
Tanner Braketa Tanner Braketa 6’1″ | PG Ralston Valley | 2025 State #285 Nation CO last year already had the green light in Ralston Valley’s offense as a freshman. He is a good shooter in almost any situation with deep range and a nice mid-range pull-up. Tanner’s knockdown jumper allows him to attack close-outs and get to a mid-range shot or floater near the rim. We have seen in the past Tanner is a player who plays up to his competition, this makes him a must-watch player as he has the ability to put his team on his back against tough matchups.
Luke Justice Luke Justice 6’1″ | SG Frederick | 2023 State CO is one of the craftiest scorers in the state, he makes tough shots while making it look very easy. Luke is a lefty and does a great job changing pace which makes him challenging for opponents to guard. He is a creative shooter off of the dribble who can hit contested three-pointers. Luke’s knockdown jumper makes opponents guard him tightly on the perimeter which he uses to blow by them then he is a very crafty scorer near the rim.
Ty Adam Ty Adam 6’8″ | C Severance | 2023 State CO was one of the top scorers in the state last year due to his size and elite athleticism. Standing at 6’8, Ty tours over much of his competition making him a reliable back-to-the-basket option for Severance. He also creates second chance opportunities with his elite vertical bounce allowing him to fly above defenders for tip-ins or put-back dunks.
Highlights
Jasper Padia Jasper Padia 6’5″ | SF Arvada West | 2023 State CO has the build and scoring ability to be one of the top scorers in the state. Jasper can stretch the floor a bit but is especially potent scoring in the mid-range and at the rim. He is very light on his feet for his size and uses long strides to get downhill quickly. Jasper will be a very tough match-up for opposing teams due to his creative ability to score at the rim using a variety of moves or just overpowering defenders to get to his spot.
