Continue ReadingI highlighted some of the Top Performers from the Bellevue location already, but these guys also made statements with their strong play at the showcase. It’s a good mix of some top names from their respective classes as well as a few under-the-radar guys to keep track of as the winter season approaches.
Harry Davies Harry Davies 6'4" | SG North Kitsap | 2024 State WA SG North Kitsap ’24
Davies is a guy that burst onto the scene last season to average well over 20 points per game. Even so, it’s clear he still has a lot of room to grow offensively and could be in for even bigger numbers this winter. He has a 3-point shot that continues to get more and more consistent and has the type of burst in short spaces that makes him a phenomenal finisher around bodies at the rim. All that being said, he’s still an impact defender too with length and a motor that doesn’t quit.
Devin Whitten Devin Whitten 6'2" | SG Curtis | 2024 State WA SG Curtis ’24
He’s going to see a lot more of the ball this coming season and we got a little taste of it at the showcase where Whitten scored inside and out. He got a little crafty at the rim, using his body to edge out defenders and finish with either hand. Known for his shooting, he dropped in plenty of outside shots and was a deadly shot-maker with range when he got his legs under him.
Dylan Meyers Dylan Meyers 6'3" | SG King's | 2024 State WA SG King’s ’24
The 6-foot-4 shooting guard was essential to King’s success at the event. With some other players able to penetrate and draw defenders in, Meyers often found himself with some space behind the 3-point line and he seemed to always cash in. With his size, he doesn’t need a ton of space to get his shot off and he was always ready to shoot.
Jackson Reijonen Jackson Reijonen 6'0" | SG Mt Spokane | 2024 WA SG Mt Spokane ’24
Whenever I see him, he’s far and away one of the toughest players on the floor. He’s not a guy that’s going to create a lot offensively but he still has the capability to make some plays getting to the rim thanks to his quick burst. He’s a key guy because he plays hard. Hard screens, relentless effort, athleticism on the glass and defensively. He just plays with an unflappable will to compete no matter what the scoreboard says.
Mercer Estes Mercer Estes 6'6" | SF Curtis | 2025 WA SF Curtis ’25
Estes is a newer name but the 6-foot-6 forward made a lot of plays at the showcase simply by working to get in good positions. He’s not a guy that will get plays run for him but he’s able to make an impact on the glass, moves well offensively to receive passes in the paint, and shows effort that translates in little ways on both ends.
Sebastian Cooper Sebastian Cooper 5'10" | PG King's | 2025 State WA PG King’s ’25
Cooper is an ascending point guard prospect that has great eyes on both ends of the floor to tip balls, create turnovers, and freeze defenders on the offensive end in advantage situations. He was able to fluster ballhandlers, jumping quick to the ball and sticking with them, looking quicker and stronger than the last time I saw him.
Logan Hudson Logan Hudson 6'8" | PF North Kitsap | 2026 State WA PF North Kitsap ’26
A big body for the Vikings, Hudson looks a little limited offensively in terms of footwork and post moves, but he does finish well when he can catch deep, shoots it pretty well from the line, and even stepped out to hit a 3-pointer. He runs the floor hard and shows some good promise defensively too.
Patrice Mpouli Patrice Mpouli 6'2" | SG Hamilton | 2026 State AZ PG Rainier Beach ’26
The electric guard reads the floor defensively so well, staying on his toes and bursting to the ball to jump passes with great anticipation. That heady play translates to the offensive end too, anticipating defenders’ next step and contorting his body to elude them, shield the ball, and get his shots off at the rim.
Colton Adams Colton Adams 6'2" | SG King's | 2026 State WA SG King’s ’26
The sophomore guard didn’t put up big numbers in the games I saw but he was a threat each time he got the ball, looked to attack and kept defenders on his side of the floor honest. His quick decision-making helped set up his teammates with space to operate and he played smart ball, rarely resulting in a negative play. He has the quickness and strength with the ball to be a slick finisher at the rim and makes plenty of hustle plays to tip out rebounds and contribute on the defensive end.
Katrelle Harmon Katrelle Harmon 6'3" | PG BFL Prep | 2026 WA PG Rainier Beach ’26
Harmon was a key component of Beach’s late surge against North Central in a game they nearly came back to win. His playmaking and slashing ability created a lot of good looks and he simply has elite length when finishing around defenders at the rim. He also showed some proficiency from behind the arc with deep range when in rhythm.
