Parker Eiswald Parker Eiswald 6'7" | SF WF West | 2024 State WA – 2024 – WF West HS
Parker is a gritty guard/wing who gets to his spots smoothly. He attacks nicely with both hands and his game looks more well rounded early in his senior season so far. He dropped 24 points and 12 rebounds in a game against Rochester, early in the season.
Jaxon Dubiel Jaxon Dubiel 6'3" | CG Mountlake Terrace | 2024 State WA – 2024 – Mountlake Terrace HS
Jaxon is a shifty guard who can play at a high level on both sides of the ball. He moves his feet very well on defense, staying in front of opposing players consistently. His offensive game has improved since last season, he knocks down his shots from midrange and deep at a high rate. Athleticism has improved too, as he threw down multiple dunks. He dropped 30 points against Marysville Pilchuck.
Legend Smiley Legend Smiley 6'5" | SG Garfield | 2025 State #98 Nation WA – 2025 – Garfield HS
Legend is an incredibly special player. Being one of the top 2 players in the entire 2025 class within the state of Washington, and even being nationally ranked within the country. Legend scores at all 3 levels arguably better than anyone else in the state. He has a lights out jump shot and can finish around the rim athletically with ease. He dropped 40 points, with 6 threes, against West Seattle.
Lincoln Niemi Lincoln Niemi 5'11" | PG Hoquiam | 2027 WA – 2027 – Hoquiam HS
Lincoln is a special talent within the 2027 class. He’s just now getting started at the HS level and it looks like he will be a high level player for the years to come. He has a lights out deep shot, sinking 9 threes in his varsity debut. Niemi went on to score 42 points, dish out 6 assists, and pull down 5 rebounds. He played a spectacular game for his first HS game ever.
Isaiah White Isaiah White 6'5" | CG Everett | 2024 State WA – 2024 – Everett HS
Isaiah has been playing amazing so far this season. He is leading this Everett team with his smooth offensive game. He gets to the hoop nicely with either hand but can stop on a dime to pull up for a jump shot with ease. He’s a teammate first player, always finding his open teammates and spreading the love throughout everyone. White dropped 34 points, 8 rebounds, and 4 assists.
