Kareem Artharee Kareem Artharee 6'3" | CG Gresham | 2026 State OR , Gresham – +14 (from #24 to #10)
In his first year playing varsity, Artharee has ascended into the starting lineup and has been the team’s leading scorer or rebounder on occasion. The 6-foot-3 swingman is extremely athletic, with good explosive moves getting to the basket and finishing at the rim, and is able to utilize his speed and athleticism on the defensive end as well.
Andwele Bridges Andwele Bridges 6'0" | PG Forest Grove | 2026 State OR , Forest Grove – +8 (from #14 to #6)
No player in the state may have seen as big a jump in scoring average as Bridges, who went from reserve guard as a freshman to leading man as a sophomore averaging over 20 points a game. The 6-foot guard’s bread and butter is getting to the basket but he’s also found success with his jumper, making him a three-level scoring threat.
Eddie Szabatin Eddie Szabatin 6'6" | PF Reynolds | 2026 State OR , Reynolds – +7 (from #30 to #23)
Making a big jump in the rankings – and with his game – this season was Szabatin. The 6-foot-6 sophomore became Reynolds’ most dependable player, using strong moves in the post and an improving face-up mid-range jumper to be a multi-purpose offensive threat. He was also one of, if not the top rebounders in 6A, averaging double-figure boards.
Robbie Long Robbie Long 6'0" | CG Central Catholic | 2026 State OR , Central Catholic – +3 (from #22 to #19)
We first got a hint of Long’s abilities in June ball last summer after he hit six threes in a single game. That shooting ability has translated over to the regular season varsity level where the 6-foot-1 guard has been a major deep threat for the Rams coming off the bench. Word on the street is that he’s picked up an HBCU college offer already.
Liam Rigney Liam Rigney 6'2" | SG Lake Oswego | 2026 State OR , Lake Oswego – +3 (from #21 to #18)
It was a rebuild at Lake Oswego this season but it gave a number of players the opportunity for major playing time and Rigney took advantage. The 6-foot-3 swingman was able to showcase his length, athleticism, and potential in various ways on both ends of the floor and is primed for even more improvement with his game this off-season.
