Continue ReadingSome of the best high school teams from all over the country came to Las Vegas this weekend for this year’s installment of the Border League. Games were held at several sites including Bishop Gorman HS, Coronado HS, Silverado HS, Las Vegas Basketball Center, and Cimarron HS. Some of the top matchups included LABC (Harvard Westlake) vs Prolific Prep, Wasatch Academy vs Overtime Elite, and Columbus (Miami, FL) vs Florida Eagles (Montverde Academy).
Andrew continued to establish himself as one of the top guards and players in California’s 2026 class during Archbishop Riordan’s wins over the Minutemen (Liberty HS), Canyon View HS, Ironwood HS, and Paraclete HS. He attacks the basket very well and is able to make plays for others or finish with either hand at the basket with good touch. Hillman has a good first step and a tight handle that he uses to create separation from defenders.
Derrion showcased his ability and capacity to contribute in multiple areas of the game in wins over Harvard Westlake and AZ Compass this weekend. He both defends and rebounds competitively, aided by his long arms, and has the instincts to know when to jump in passing lanes. Reid is also a good athlete who can attack the basket on the offensive end and provides floor spacing for his team because of his 3 point shooting ability.
Jeremiah showed good patience/composure, passing vision, and touch in the paint during games against Montverde, Prolific Prep and a win over LV Orange (Bishop Gorman) this weekend. He showed good creativity and the ability to find different ways to finish around much bigger defenders, the vision and patience to let plays like a pick n’ roll develop to hit the roll man late or skip the ball, and the toughness to draw contact and get to the free throw line.

Dom showcased his ability to hurt teams from the perimeter in Socal Academy’s wins over Storm Hoopers (Owyhee HS) and Toros Select (Arbor View HS). He is a very confident shooter off both the dribble and catch and his movement without the ball creates constant issues for opponents. Stewart is also a plus athlete which is what allows him to be very effective in transition.

Nate shot the ball well from 3 and moved very effectively without the ball in Archbishop Riordan’s wins over the Minutemen (Liberty HS), Canyon View, Ironwood, and Paraclete. He creates opportunities for himself and others with his movement and contributes on the defensive end as well with rebounds and tenacious man defense. Tshamala’s length also enables him to contest shots well on the defensive end and contribute on the glass.
