Top Individual Performances

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>As the season keeps going along, I will be taking a look into the top performances of the games throughout the season and giving players who stood out on the court! Here's a couple from the few weeks of action.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><em><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2021623' first='Maximus' last='Christiansen'] - 2026 - Kamiak HS</strong></em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Maximus is taking on a bigger role this season and has stepped up nicely. I watched him over the summer and he was a fantastic spark for the team. He handles the ball well and can attack the bucket with either hand effectively. He has a nice lefty shot that he can get off quickly. In a game against Newport, he dropped 26 points on the night. He is a player to keep an eye on in the 2026 class.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><em><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2457277' first='Kaden' last='Veldman'] - 2027 - Lynden Christian HS</strong></em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Kaden is just a freshman but it appears he will have a big role with the back to back state champions. Veldman has solid size and knows his game well on the court. He rebounds extremely well and has a fantastic touch around the rim. He plays hard on defense, always moving his feet and keeping his hands in the passing lane. In a game against Burlington-Edison, Kaden dropped 20 points, pulled down 15 rebounds, and recorded 5 steals on the game.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><em><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1978880' first='Ty' last='Bloomfield'] - 2024 - Everett HS</strong></em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Ty is an electric guard who has elite handles and a great feel for the game. He can control the pace of the game at a high level and plays off teammate [player_tooltip player_id='1450954' first='Isaiah' last='White'] extremely well. Ty has a very solid deep shot which makes him a threat with the ball in his hands or playing off ball. In a game against Snohomish, Ty scored 25 points on 9/10 shootings and had 4 assists on the night.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><em><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1450563' first='Jaxon' last='Dubiel'] - 2024 - Mountlake Terrace HS</strong></em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Jaxon has improved his game throughout the AAU and HS summer league seasons. His overall game has elevated quite a bit, being able to score at all 3 levels more smoother. His handles are elite and his shot making ability makes him a top guard in the 2024 class. In a game against Marysville-Pilchuck, he scored 31points, 5 assists, 6 rebounds, and 6 steals. A college program is going to land a gem with him.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><em><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1450981' first='Josiah' last='Lee'] - 2025 - Glacier Peak HS</strong></em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Jo is the top scoring option for Glacier Peak and rightfully so. He gets to his spots very efficently and has great handles and overall presence on the court. Lee is a lights out shooter from deep, being a top shooter in the entire 2025 class. He doesn't need much space to get his shot off, which makes him dangerous. He scores at all 3 levels efficently and has a deadly mid-range shot. In a game against Bothell, he broke the Glacier Peak's single game scoring record with 49 points.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
