Adam Davis Adam Davis 6'6" | SF Tahoma | 2024 State WA | 2024 | Tahoma (WA)
The 6-foot-6 forward is an ideal stretch-four high school player due to his ability to knock dow ncatch and shoot threes in addition to his feel when moving without the ball. When not spotting up and knocking down open shots, Davis is a timely cutter and soft-touch finisher around the basket. Davis finished with an efficient 14 points in a win over Orange Lutheran.
Anthony Washington | 2025 | Roosevelt (WA)
Washington would be categorized among the forwards/centers on this list and the 6-foot-6 junior had some of the best hands, footwork and feel around the rim that we saw Tuesday. Washington was all over the offensive glass and scored the majority of his points on second-chance tip-in opportunities. His ability to score with either hand around the basket made him a tough cover.
Aten Hassan | 2025 | Palisades
Hassan is a nice addition to a Palisades squad that went through some early season turmoil. Now healthy after injury, the 6-foot-5 junior had a couple of impressive drives and finishes in transition and half-court offense. Hassan also knocked down three three-pointers off the catch.
Dalton Brown Dalton Brown 6'6" | SF Tahoma | 2024 State WA | 2024 | Tahoma (WA)
Brown was the most productive 4/5 man on the day as the wiry 6-foot-7 forward scored a game-high 27 points in a win over Orange Lutheran. The senior seemed to be everywhere on the court from slashing and finishing on the break to cutting and scoring in half-court offense or snagging second-chance opportunities on the offense boards. Rebounds weren’t officially calculated in that game but Brown certainly approached the 15-board mark.
Jasiah Williams | 2027 | Hesperia
Williams, just a freshman, impressed on a big stage as he scored all 15 of his points in a second half that saw Hesperia pull away from St. Monica. The 6-foot-3 wing is an athletic slasher and downhill finisher who has the speed, strength and athleticism to blow by defenders and extend to the rim for paint finishes.
