There are two players out at Lehi High School that are ready to usher in the new youngster at Lehi. Ashton Shewell Ashton Shewell 6'4" | CG Lehi | 2027 State UT is the real deal. Not too many Utah freshman can 360 dunk and be a knockdown shooter from deep. My guess is he will start on JV to get experience and he will crack the rotation here and thereon Varsity. The fact that he is not built like a scrawny freshman is going to help this kid. Avery Howe Avery Howe WG UT is another youngster that has some solid upside. He has size and he has some skills he can use and develop. Look fo rhim to get better on the defensive end and then. use his offensive skills to continue to improve as one of the bright youngster with size. Saxton Young is another promising young PG that can learn a lot from the guard stable they have over at Lehi, this kid is the next man up for sure.
If we head up north we have a few players we will keep an eye on like Kai Benion Kai Benion WG UT who is a next level athlete over at Farmington who is also a stud as a lacrosse player. He is the future over at Farmington. Karter Miller Karter Miller 6'0" | PG Layton | 2027 State UT at Layton has experience and he will figure out a way to get onthe floor as the younger brother of KJ Miller KJ Miller 6'3" | CG Layton | 2024 State UT and son of Layton High School Coach Kelby Miller. Karter has been a very much improved player that has grown his game. Bode Sparrow Bode Sparrow 6'2" | CG Davis | 2027 State UT lite it up on the football field and now it is time to see him on the basketball court. I would be shocked if he does not get varsity minutes, this kid can play.
Here are a few other players we need to be aware of like Anthony Burris Anthony Burris 6'0" | PG Murray | 2027 State UT over at Murray who seems to be building something special with a few 2026 and 2027 kids. There is a big strong kid coming up over at Corner Canyon in Manase Brown Manase Brown 6'3" | PF Corner Canyon | 2027 State UT who is currently tied up playing for a State Championship on the football field. Swift Hall Swift Hall 5'11" | CG Springville | 2027 State UT over at Springville is a notable player that could be the next youngster getting run at Springville. Stone Tia Stone Tia 6'2" | SF Cyprus | 2027 State UT over at Cyprus and Madden Johnsen Madden Johnsen 6'4" | PF Woods Cross | 2027 State UT over at Woods Cross have potential and it might be a matter of time before they become household names. Preston White Preston White 6'0" | CG Pleasant Grove | 2027 State UT over at Pleasant Grove High School has all the skills you would want in a young guard so he could be a rising talent for sure.
The Class of 2027 has some dudes but it also has a lot of room for players to make some noise and move up the rankings with ease as they start to play.
