6’10 C Augustine Ekwe Augustine Ekwe 6'10" | C Wasatch Academy | 2025 State UT || Wasatch Academy || 2025 ||
With a school like Wasatch Academy stock piling talent and developing them on their lower level teams they suddenly burt onto the scenes at times, well Ekwe is a force in the paint and he has made it his personal mission to protect the paint with his high flying and elite reach. He has the ability to swat a ball out of the air that might not seem getable. On offense he is still developing but he is young and has time. If he gets an easy catch and no double team he is scoring at a high percentage. Defense rebounds come to him like a magnet. He is a player you need to put on your big board. He will be running on the 3SSB Circuit with the Utah Prospects.
6’3 PG Coleman Atwater Coleman Atwater 6'3" | PG Davis | 2025 State UT || Davis High School || 2025 ||
Size at the lead guard position and a handle that is nice Coleman has skills that are transferable to the next level. To top things off he is a shooter, If he gets a good look he is going to make you pay. Coleman looks good early running with the new Utah Gold program. With size and shooting ability you can push him over to the SG and add an extra ball handler.
6’3 G JJ Apathjang JJ Apathjang 6'5" | CG Judge Memorial Catholic | 2025 State UT || RSL Academy || 2025 ||
JJ will be running with Kongo this Spring and Summer and it looks like he is more locked in than he has in the past. His jumper is looking better and his attack moves have improved. His athleticism continues to develop and he could be a big riser again in the Spring/Summer.
6’7 W/SF Derelle Desire || Juan Diego Catholic || 2024 ||
Derelle is an intriguing prospect that makes his way to JDCHS via England and has started to get it. He has speed and strength. His motor in the paint is something to pay attention to but he really can stretch the floor as he does have a good shot. You are nt just getting a skinny 6’7 kid he is strong and has a good frame. Derelle will be able to showcase all his skills running with the Salt Lake Rebels this Spring and Summer.
6’5 G Owen Mackay Owen Mackay 6'5" | CG Snow Canyon | 2024 State UT || Snow Canyon High School || 2024 ||
Owen will be one of the highest stock risers in the Class of 2024 as he is a no brainer D1 kid with athleticism and a shot. If he wa playing on any 6A program he would be a big time talking point when it comes to playing at the highest level. He can hit the drive and kick shots, he can drive and get in the lane and the kid can fly. Not too many guard that have his athleticism. Stay tuned because he should have people on him ASAP. Owen is running with the Utah Prospects for this Spring and Summer.
