Bingham High School || 6’0 KJ Jensen || 2023 ||
KJ is an underrated talent and he will have an opportunity to shine with him turning into a full-time starter. KJ is a knockdown shooter that can really stretch the floor. He can also play some lead guard, his game allows him to see the floor on the ball or off the ball. He has gotten stronger and when he is healthy again he will be a really nice small school prospect.
Copper Hills High School || 6’5 Kyson Hymas Kyson Hymas 6'5" | SF Copper Hills | 2023 State UT || 2023 ||
Sleeper prospect that has a respectable game inside and out. Not too many players in the region that could matchup with Kyson as he is a big guard that can take players into the post. He is strong and he has range and high accuracy shooting. It will be interesting what teams try to scheme up defensively against him and Copper
Herriman High School || 6’6 Hayden Gribble Hayden Gribble 6'6" | SF Corner Canyon | 2024 State UT || 2024 ||
With so many outstanding young players hitting their stride we want to make sure everyone knows Hayden Gribble Hayden Gribble 6'6" | SF Corner Canyon | 2024 State UT because he is going to be a major player as a F that is making some transitions to having a more fluid perimeter game he could really be a key to that team. He is a high flyer that is tough and defends. He shoots the ball from long distance and his mid-range is coming along. If his motor is on he is a tough player that has next level ability. Could really be the glue guy that gets Herriman over the hump.
Mountain Ridge High School || 6’0 Kylee Carley Kylee Carley 6'0" | PG Mountain Ridge | 2023 UT || 2023 ||
With more run this upcoming season Kyle looks to be a player that not only takes over a lot of the assisting but scoring as well. Mountain Ridge has a chance to shock a lot of people with a lot of new pieces.
Riverton High School || 6’5 Jaxon Kerekes Jaxon Kerekes 6'5" | CG Riverton | 2023 State UT || 2023 ||
Jaxon could be in the hunt for best player in the Region. He has size and can score the ball. Doesn’t lean on the the three ball but he can shoot. He has that all-around game. He makes Riverton interesting because they have some positional size at each position and he can handle the ball as a lead guard.
West Jordan High School || 6’3 Carter Dorenbosch Carter Dorenbosch 6'4" | SG West Jordan | 2024 State UT || 2024 ||
Good young talent that will take up a lot of the scoring left from a team that graduated a lot of seniors. Look for him to make an impact at West Jordan.
