Just when you think he’ll keep the crowd at a moderate level of energy, he strikes again, making flashy passes and breaking defenders ankles. Dalton Larner Dalton Larner CO can hurt a defense at any level of the floor, and strives to get his teammates involved in the action. Larner is a pest on defense, always seeking steals and attentively in passing lanes.
With James Driggers James Driggers 6’4″ | SF The Village | 2026 CO , you’re getting a player who can soar above the rim and drive to the cup tenaciously.

His ability to cash in down on the blocks and make a play when needed is a plus for any coach to have.
Trey Oden Trey Oden 6’2″ | CG Banning-Lewis | 2025 State CO is an elusive guard who is unselfish with the rock, he serves dimes to his teammates at an efficient rate with minimal turnovers.

His attitude and mindset is focused while having a lightness to the game.
