Anthony has always been known for his scrappy style on the defensive end and this season has taken big leaps on the offensive end. As a young guard Anthony lacks no confidence, using his quick burst of speed to get defenders out of position. He has improved his jumper and has shown the ability to hit some tough shots off of the dribble with solid efficiency.

Kasen Lehman – Rock Canyon
Kasen Lehman is a young prospect who we have had an eye on to see if he would step up this year and he has! Kasen is a big wing standing at 6’4 who has a solid frame as well. He has one of the most pure shooting strokes in the state, quickly getting the ball into his shooting pocket and shooting in one consistent motion, I have heard comparisons between his shot and Klay Thompson’s, I can see the similarities. The big question this year was what else can Kasen bring to the court other than his scoring? He has shown off his potential on the defensive making the extra effort on plays to help his team make defensive stops. Kasen is another stock-boosting sophomore who we are excited to keep watching throughout his career.

It will be interesting to see how Jordan will play in the tough centennial league as if teams did not yet know Jordan is that guy at Mullen, it will be a great challenge for him to as teams will likely throw many different defenders and defensive schemes his way.
