Walters shot 54 percent from the field and 48 percent from beyond the arc as a junior last season. Walters averaged 24.6 points, 9.9 rebounds, 1.6 assists and nearly two blocked shots per game last year.

Tesch also scored in double figures in 21 of North Broward Prep’s 23 games he played in last season. Tesch currently holds an offer from Cal Poly. Tesch averaged 16 points and 5 rebounds per game last season and is expected to have a stellar senior season ahead.

Christian Reid Christian Reid 6'5″ | SF Mater Lakes | 2024 State FL  6-5 SF (2024)

Reid may be under-sized but he uses his strength and aggression to an advantage. Reid was a double-double machine last season for Mater Lakes Academy, where he had a team-high 14 double doubles last season as a sophomore. He is also relentless when it comes to attacking the basket, as well as chasing down loose balls and getting deflections. He will look to play an even bigger factor as he heads into his junior season.

Jenkins can score in a variety of ways, whether he’s beyond the arc or penetrating to the rim. Jenkins shot 56 percent from the field and 46 percent from beyond the arc last season for Santa Fe High. Not only does Jenkins excel on the hardwood, but he is a standout athlete in football and baseball as well. Last season as a junior, Jenkins averaged 17 points, 3 rebounds, 3.6 assists and 2.7 steals per game. Look for Jenkins to play a key role once again in the Santa Fe Raider offense this upcoming season.
