Ryan DelSol of Orono (5’11 Guard, 2025). Ryan waited his moments when I saw him, and then struck. And he struck fast. He struck with the pull-up, he struck with a lay-in and then ball pressured players into mistakes that led to more scores. I recorded Ryan with 17 points on 8 of 9 shooting and with Orono having to replace several seniors, keep an eye on Ryan the next two seasons.
Noah George Noah George 6'2" | PG Roseville Area | 2025 State MN of Roseville (6’2, 2025 shooting guard). Noah was scorching hot to start the game hitting three threes immediately and putting up 19 points on 7 of 10 shooting. Noah not only shot it well, he stepped into everything confidently. This is a player that played some varsity, some JV last year but you have to believe he will move into a two year key shooting role for the Raiders.
Brady Lam Brady Lam 6'5" | SF Wayzata | 2026 State MN of Wayzata (6’5 Forward, 2026). Lam was a consistently used player for his team on ball screens, collecting rebounds and getting the ball to the outlet, and cleaning up things around the basket with putbacks and finishes off the drives of others. With guards being individual happy, Brady only had so many attempts but he made the most of them as we saw Brady record a double-double.
Kingston Manning Kingston Manning 6'4" | PF Minnehaha Academy | 2025 State MN of Minnehaha Academy (6’3 Forward, 2025). Manning has the size and mobility of a linebacker/tight end on the basketball court and he used it well to produce for his team. There were boards, the catch and hit jumper, and the physical scores with one dribble or around the basket. Should be a nice piece for the Hawks.
Zuhayb Mohamed Zuhayb Mohamed 6'5" | C Ubah Medical Academy | 2025 MN of Ubah Medical (6’1, 2025 shooting guard). I watched Mohamed score. I found his name, committed the school to memory, and then he hit a jumper. I then looked at the name again, committed that to memory, and Zuhayb hit a jumper with a smile. I then thought, maybe I need to join the Czar at an Ubah Medical game this winter!
Isaac Tollefson Isaac Tollefson 6'0" | PG Southwest Christian | 2025 MN of Southwest Christian (6’0, 2025 guard). Isaac has me believing – along with other names that have surfaced this off-season – in Southwest Christian having a nice season. Tollefson is that player that if you are defending, you better know where he’s at when he is moving off the ball because he is ready to cut hard, catch and destroy. He did so with the jumper or with the quick dribble attack finishing with either hand.
