Satchivi is a shifty playmaker, effectively changing speeds to keep the defense guessing. Capable of drawing in multiple defenders, he looks to make the extra pass once help has arrived. The sophomore has shown value knocking down perimeter jumpers off the catch, bringing in a fairly quick release. Off the catch, Satchivi is quick to attack a closeout, ready to put pressure on the rim to create a great look. They have impressive balance against pressure, repeatedly hitting floaters through contests.
Duda is a confident shotmaker versus pressure, effectively stepping into pull-up jumpers off the bounce. He is not afraid of attacking the paint, bringing a dangerous between move that has taken ankles in the past. Simply put, Duda is among the flashiest lead guards in this class, certainly worthy of views just due to his playstyle along the perimeter. Defensively, Duda can get up to block shots on occasion, more so when recovering past a drive. His continued growth as a decisionmaker versus pressure will be worth following, already bringing in eye opening shot creation with the ball.
Lavodrick Hogues Lavodrick Hogues 5'11" | CG Sandia | 2026 State NM
4.8 PPG
An impactful defender, Hogues creates chaos on his defensive possessions. Effective doing the dirty work on the glass or passing lanes, they played a subtlety valuable role with Sandia this season.
Kenneth Zamora Kenneth Zamora 5'9" | CG St. Pius X. | 2026 State NM
A smooth scoring guard, Zamora has the ball on string with either hand, allowing him to be a particularly dependable downhill scorer. Effective levitating in the air for floaters and other mid-air finishes, the guard has a bit more athleticism than one would expect. Effective making reads out of ball screens, they have been effective making the right decision while on the attack. Defensively, he is mobile at the point of attack, certainly capable of matching up with opposing lead ball handlers.
Julian Castillo Julian Castillo 5'10" | CG Del Norte | 2026 State NM
12.5 PPG
3 RPG
2.1 APG
Castillo shows upside knocking down three point attempts off the catch, a capable shotmaker when provided space. He brings value handling the ball against pressure, at his best when attacking with a head of steam. Del Norte will be an intriguing program over the coming seasons due to their backcourt duo of Castillo and Satchivi, bringing in plenty of playmaking between those two.
Jared Porter Jared Porter 5'10" | CG Valencia | 2026 State NM
10 PPG
2.6 RPG
Porter has shown intrigue scoring the ball behind the arc, capable of stepping into three point attempts should a rotation fail to arrive. Often tasked with setting up the half court offense, the guard stays ready to facilitate when necessary. Typically making his decision within four dribbles, Porter is efficient with his decision making process. He looks to make the most of his opportunities within the offensive flow, rarely forcing attempts or overdribbling.
