Bogdan Chobu Bogdan Chobu 5'10" | CG Westview | 2023 State OR (2023 Westview) – 27 points, 4 steals. The 5-foot-10 senior was hot from three – hitting six from distance – while also showing shiftiness off the dribble and some quickness on defense within Westview’s full court pressure.
Malik Brown Malik Brown 6'0" | PG Tigard | 2023 State OR (2023 Tigard) – 20 points, 5 rebounds, 7 assists. As the season has progressed, the 6-foot senior has been increasing his scoring touch. He converted some tough drives but also equally looked for open shooters out on the perimeter.
Kalim Brown Kalim Brown 6'0" | CG Tigard | 2023 State OR (2023 Tigard) – 16 points. The 6-foot senior did his usual thing, knocking down the pull-up jumper and getting out in transition for easy scores at the basket.
Sean Chris Tresvant Sean Chris Tresvant 5'11" | PG Cleveland | 2023 State OR (2023 Cleveland) – 16 points, 5 rebounds, 3 assists. Tresvant was quick off the dribble and money from the free throw line – a perfect 10-for-10 – but where he drew most praise from the college coaches in attendance was his on court leadership.
Jackson Cooper Jackson Cooper 6'5" | SF Cleveland | 2023 State OR (2023 Cleveland) – 14 points, 10 rebounds. A hard-nosed effort as we’ve come to expect out of the 6-foot-6 senior with the type of numbers he’s posted consistently all season long.
Josiah Lake Josiah Lake 6'1" | PG Tualatin | 2023 State OR (2023 Tualatin) – 19 points, 5 rebounds, 5 assists. Solid all-around game from the 6-foot senior, who hit step-back threes but also really got to the hoop and either scored or got to the line.
Kavon Bradford Kavon Bradford 6'2" | CG Benson | 2023 State OR (2023 Benson) – 19 points, 3 rebounds, 4 assists. The 6-foot-2 senior looked to get into the lane and finished well around the hoop. With the ball in his hands most of the game, he balanced his scoring with getting the ball to teammates.
Moroni Seely-Roberts Moroni Seely-Roberts 6'6" | SF Lincoln | 2023 State OR (2023 Lincoln) – 24 points, 13 rebounds. The 6-foot-6 senior pretty much did whatever he wanted to offensively, powering his way past defenders and finishing with a soft touch around the hoop. He cleaned up on the boards, especially on the defensive end.
Malachi Seely-Roberts Malachi Seely-Roberts 6'8" | SF Lincoln | 2023 State OR (2023 Lincoln) – 20 points, 8 rebounds, 6 assists. In their win over Barlow, the 6-foot-8 senior was money from the outside hitting four threes, but also drew contact on drives and converted a perfect 8-for-8 from the line.
Scotty Riddle Scotty Riddle 6'0" | PG Gresham | 2023 State OR (2023 Gresham) – 17 points. Good balance of having a feel for the game for the 6-foot-1 senior, who did a nice job of both attacking the hoop for scores or looking to fire away from the outside.
