Schedule
9/26- vs. OTE City Reapers
9/27- vs. OTE Cold Hearts
City Reapers
Although they have not officially posted their roster here are some players that will likely be on this team.
Trey Parker (NC State) – Trey can jump out of the gym.
Bryson Tiller Bryson Tiller 6'9" | PF Overtime Elite | 2025 State #19 Nation GA (Alabama, USC, North Carolina, Kansas….) – This kid is likely a one and done prospect regardless where he goers next year.
Eli Ellis Eli Ellis 6'1" | CG Moravian Prep | 2025 GA (Old Dominion, Texas Tech, Wake Forest…) – Eli is not just a viral tik-tok sensation the kid has game and he will be a tough cover for Utah Prep’s guards.
Karter Knox Karter Knox 6'6" | SG Tampa Catholic | 2024 #6 Nation GA (Florida State, Arkansas, Kentucky…) – Karter is likely to end up at Kentucky but this kid is talented.
Daquan Davis (Providence) – Big fella can move
Jon Bol (Ole Miss) – One of the talest players in the OTE League and he can hoop. No starnger to Utah kids as he was in Vegas for awhile before he was at Mokan.
Jahzare Jackson – 6’9 300 lbs. and a senior with upside, could end up at Miami but this kid is going to be a load.
Nathan Missa-Dio – Plays on the Belgium National team and he has major upside as NBA scouts are all over him
Cold Hearts
Nassir Cunningham (Duke, Creighton, Arkansas…) – Smart and High IQ guard that has major upside.
Somoto Cyril (Kentucky) – One of the premier shot blockers in the country. This kid is long and has bounce.
Ralph Martino Jr. – The 6’6 CG is a freak athlete that does a little bit of everything.
Utah Prep
This team is looking to make a name for themselves as they have rebranded and have a new look team that has some talent. They will be lead by Gold Medalist JJ Mandaquit JJ Mandaquit 6'2" | PG Utah Prep | 2025 State #45 Nation UT who has slowly moved in the National Rankings conversation. He is a PG that makes everyone around him better but he also has take over ability. He will have a new SG on his side this year in john Southwick who is a 40% + shooter and he lite it up on the Adidas 3SSB Circuit and was one of the best shooters in the country in the Top Circuits in America. Then you have Junior County Junior County 6'5" | PG Utah Prep | 2026 State UT who is making noise as a 6’5 CG that can do it all. Junior will take what you give him and make you pay. They have a frontline of 6’9 players that should crack the rotation against some of these bigger teams they will face. Excited fo rthem to compete and for new players to emerge as they have been inmproving since last year. Gavin Placide Gavin Placide 6'8" | CG Utah Prep | 2025 UT and Gallagher Placide Gallagher Placide 6'8" | CG Utah Prep | 2025 UT are two twins from Colorado that could really give this team some big wing depth.
