Featured Players
Here are two featured players that have really taken to the spotlight.
JJ has matured over the past few years and he has really taken to that lead guard position. He can make a few quick moves and create separation for himself to get to the rim. He has the length to finish over those taller players coming over to help and he has teh athleticism to play above the rim as well. He is shooting the ball better that he ever has and there is still room to improve. Stay tuned because JJ looks locked in.
Might be one of the most impressive off the radar players in the class. He has a burst and that twitch that you need to be impactful off the bounce at the next level. He is. player to watch. Wogar is built to attack the rim at the next level.
Highlights
Players to Watch
Easton brings some really good high IQ basketball to the team. He is a calming presence out there on the floor. He knows when to push the tempo and when to scale back when needed. He can get in the lane a create and he is a good shot maker. He is going to have a lot of confidence heading into the high school season after running with this confident bunch.
Kasenga is a monster out on the floor. He would be an ideal D2 player at the highest level D2 but he ha sthat D1 type of upside. Couls really see an NJCAA team come after him and help him develop even more. He is a presence down on the block.
Overview
Players that will have a chance to really make an impact are Sam Romer Sam Romer 6'6" | CG Layton | 2025 State UT , a player with size and he will be playing his true position at the club level, he could really pop on this team. Jackson Taylor Jackson Taylor 6'2" | SG Lone Peak | 2025 State UT keeps teams from pinching their defense to take away drives and lanes as he can shoot the rock very well. Jonah Fullmer Jonah Fullmer 6'0" | PG Layton | 2025 State UT is another player that does a little bit of everything to help his team win. He is a three level scorer that is a CG as he can be on the ball or off the ball. Team Utah is well coached but they are not held down by sets, they are able to get out and run and create. They will make noise on their circuit for sure.
