PG: JJ Mandaquit JJ Mandaquit 6'2" | PG Utah Prep | 2025 State #45 Nation UT
One of the best kept secrets out here in the Mountain West. JJ is one of the best floor generals that has next level playing ability. With his uniwues skill to see the floor and get his teammates great looks and opportunities to score has been something that simply jumps out at you right away. JJ has take over ability and when he has the ball in his hands he is going to make the right read that will lead to the right play.
SG: Coleman Atwater Coleman Atwater 6'3" | PG Davis | 2025 State UT
Coleman has been a good shooter even before he hit the high school floor. This past season he continued to build on that. He racked up some impressive long ball shots. He plays in a tough region and their strength of schedule has really made a difference in his development as an overall good shooter. If he played on a team that played some cup cake teams he would be putting up crazy numbers. He has some size and length and he plays both ends of the floor. He has a unique skill as he can create shots on the ball or he can move over off the ball and simply shoot.
CG: Isiah Harwell Isiah Harwell 6'5" | CG Wasatch Academy | 2025 State #7 Nation UT
Isiah’s move to Wasatch Academy has really paid off. He has many eyes on him and the offers and interest from top tier college programs all over the country have really taken notice and he will be a must watch player as soon as they start playing club ball. Isiah has been on the ball and off the ball against some of the best players in the NIBC. Shooting continues to improve, especially when you see him hunt shots in his hot spots. He has also improved defensively using his keen anticipation skills as he has been able to get out infornt of the pack and throw down some impressive dunks.
SF: Ike Staley Ike Staley 6'6" | SG Lone Peak | 2025 State UT
Ike is on that most improved list of players as he has just been different his year using his outside shooting to get open lanes as defenders close out on him or just give him too much space. He cannot be guarded by smaller defenders as he will bully his way to the rim and he will also just shoot over them. Ike will quickly become a 20 PPG player with the skills that he has and are developing.
C: Chamberlain Burgess Chamberlain Burgess 6'9" | PF Lone Peak | 2025 State #214 Nation UT
Chamberlain has come a long way and he still has a high ceiling as he is just starting scratch the surface with how he can be effective on the floor. He is at his best when he is 15 feet and in and when he is contesting and blocking shots. Great sophomore season to build on.
