Landon Irwin

I watched Landon live the other week at Portland Spring Preview, he showcased fantastic anticipation on both ends of the court. He found his spots on the offensive side smoothly, hitting jumpers off screens and getting to the bucket off his dribble moves effectively. He found his open teammates when needed, coming off screens effectively and delivering accurate bounce passes through traffic.
This Garfield guard is going to take over this spring/summer and be dominate next year with the Bulldogs as well. Lets start with his defensive ability, Bomet can move his feet VERY well. He is lighting quick with his feet and his hands arguably making him one of the best on ball defenders in the entire state of Washington. His vision is elite, as he finds his teammates with threading the defense. He is a special player.
Here is a guard you will know QUICKLY, if you don’t already. Jones is likely going to be one of the top options for North Central with the team losing some key players in the 2024 class. Trevelle is patient with the ball in his hands, not forcing anything and allowing the game to come to him.rnHis jumper is smooth, being able to hit shots consistently from deep or on pull up jumpers. Be on the watch for this 6’2″ guard in the 2026 class.
Highlights
Here is another player who I think can sky rocket up the rankings when they are released next. Johnson attends Auburn HS and will compliment Jaylen Petty Jaylen Petty 5’11” | PG Auburn | 2025 State WA in a big way next season. He is shifty on the court, having elite handles and always keeping the ball close to him. He has a natural feel for the game, throwing antisip[ation passes to his teammates that are pwerfectly placed. His mid-range jumper has been improving as well, be on the watch as he already has a deadly jumper.
