Continue ReadingUtah hoopers have been scoring at a high pace this year. it has a lot to do with young players getting really good at hitting from deep. Bad close-outs have really opened the floor for all players driving as well. With teams that play good defense the smart coaches have put shooters in places that hurt the rotations. Here are a few players that went off win or lose.
Malcom passes the eyeball test as he is 6’6 or so and he can play out in the perimeter and can duck in and work the post as well. When he gets going from deep which is exactly what happen when they hosted Riverton. He went off for 6 three-pointers. He was also just one rebound shy of a double-double. With Malcom stat stuffing you can see the kind of skill he can bring to the next level. Lost in a heart breaker but he is set to continue to play well, especially with his size just makes him a tough guard.

Jaxon was clutch and he helped get a tough road win at Herriman as he had 22 points. Jaxon has bene lights out all year and he is now going to try and keeps that rolling against team specifically looking to stop him. The reason he hasn’t really been on the radar recruiting wise is because he did not play AAU. If he was on a squad playing in a solid platform he would be a much more known name.
Watch Out! Mason is not just scoring from deep like he has done in the past. He is tossing in floaters and runners and he has some bounce as he threw one down as well. Had 13 in a win and a fantastic atmosphere.

This kid put on a show as he almost stole the show with the win against a team that is really good. They had no real answer for Aaayden as he went off for 27 points. This kid has been playing well all season and this Judge team has yet to reach their potential so y’all need to watch out for Aaayden and Judge, because they’re coming.
One of the most intriguing prospects out there in the Class of 2024. Zach had himself a game and he was instrumental in this OT win. 25 points and he hit some long three-pointers. Rebounded the ball well. One of the best Swiss Army knifes out there this year.

Highlights
Kaden battles and although his team came up short he has been playing well. He had himself 9 rebounds to go along with another double digit scoring outing. Kaden would be an ideal D2 player but he has interest from all over. Kid has a motor and he can score from all over.
