Here were some of the standouts from the two teams.
Mal Both Mal Both 6'8" | PF Inspire Prep National | 2024 State AZ Inspire Prep National (Pictured)
A long, tall and fluid forward can catch and shoot from the three. He is a sneaky good passer for position. He also scores on hook shots, mid-range jumpers and will finish off lob dunks as a natural athlete.
Dilen Miller Dilen Miller 6'3" | PG Inspire Prep National | 2024 State #229 Nation AZ Inspire Prep National
The Georgia State commit is a bigger sized scoring point who is a pinpoint passer. He throws nice lob passes and right into a teammates shooting pocket. He makes his money on his deep triples with real range and a super quick release. He uses his strong frame, length and motor to defend on the ball.
Moses Bahige Moses Bahige 6'2" | CG Inspire Prep National | 2024 State AZ Inspire Prep National
A thicker framed guard has a polished mid-range pull-up and gets to the free throw line often. He uses his stronger upper body, lateral quicks and long arms to defend on the ball. He is a plus passer and has a nice floater game.
Devon Carter Devon Carter 6'8" | PF Inspire Prep National | 2024 State AZ Inspire Prep National
A long and lean power forward is a sensational lob dunk finisher. He loves hanging out in the dunkers spot and is a true rim runner and scores on offensive rebound put backs. He rebounds in his area, runs the floor and defends in space and will block shots. He can occasionally step out and shoot it.
Shakur Davis Shakur Davis 6'1" | SG Inspire Prep National | 2024 State AZ Inspire Prep National
A thicker scoring guard is very good in transition and can dunk it on the break. He gets downhill easily with a nice handle and can finish off shots with either hand. He plays hard on both ends of the court and shockingly had 10 steals!
Jeremiah Johnson Jeremiah Johnson 6'4" | PG Phhoenix Prep | 2024 State AZ Phhoenix Prep
The Oklahoma State commit is one of the top senior point guards in the West and in the country, and showed off his talents. He seems to get better by the month. He scored 28 in the big game versus one of the top teams. He scores from all levels with drive-bys in transition, mid-range jumpers with high elevation, deep threes and he gets off the floor effortlessly to rebound. He sprays the ball around to make plays and defend.
Bo Aldridge Bo Aldridge 6'2" | CG Phhoenix Prep | 2024 State AZ Phhoenix Prep
Johnson’s partner in crime on this night was Bo. The ASU commit is fearless getting to the basket. He scores on tip dunk offensive rebounds among the post players, left or right hand layups after he blows by his opponents with elite body control. His athleticism is literally NBA level and he can pull-up from mid-range and can be a lock down defender in college.
Devin Brafford Phhoenix Prep
The rare footer had a coming out party. He rebounds at a high level, he rim runs, scores on offensive rebound put backs impressively high above the crowd, blocks a ton of shots and can even step out and shoot the three.
Davius Loury Davius Loury 6'8" | PF Phhoenix Prep | 2024 State AZ Phhoenix Prep
A good sized forward with a pretty touch with deep three point range. He uses his long arms to collect steals and rebounds well in his area.
Carmelo Adkins Carmelo Adkins 6'5" | SG Phhoenix Prep | 2024 State AZ Phhoenix Prep
One of the top deep shooters in the state has an ultimate quick shooting release with range for days. The West Virginia commit shoots it from the volleyball line and has huge confidence.
