2027 Under the Radar West Valley Guards

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The West Valley has a bunch of hidden and under-the-radar talent that I was able to view all summer long. As the season is around the corner, here are my 2027 under-the-radar West valley guards.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>In case you missed it, here are my 2026 under the radar guards, forwards and centers.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><a href="https://prephoops.com/2025/10/2026-under-the-radar-west-valley-guards/">2026 Under the Radar West Valley Guards</a></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><a href="https://prephoops.com/2025/10/2026-under-the-radar-west-valley-forwards-centers/">2026 Under the Radar West Valley Forwards/Centers</a></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2605811"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-690d12ceb0ded"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Elijah is one of those gritty players every coach wants on their team. He may not always fill the stat sheet with flashy numbers, but he remains a key part of the team's success. Elijah is a fast and pesky defender that often takes on the opposing teams lead guard. When Elijah scores he likes to get to the middle of the paint for floaters or just finish at the rim with finesse. He is a very high IQ player that just simply makes the right plays. He has a nice shot and a great handle on the ball. Expect him to have a big impact on a tough Carl Hayden squad.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2754862"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-690d12ceb0e60"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Anthony is a super athletic guard that can put pressure on the rim. His ability to play above the rim from the guard spot makes him very effective and valuable. He has great speed and a strong frame that allows his to blow by defenders and take bumps when attacking. Anthony is a plus defender that plays with a lot of energy and uses his athleticism to his advantage. He has improved on his outside jump shot and continues to add to his overall offensive game. Anthony will be a big part of Canyon View's success this season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2298905"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-690d12ceb0eb6"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Jorden is a high pace and crafty guard. He is one of the fastest and quickest players that I have seen this off-season . He does a lot of scoring in the paint with a nice and simple floater or draws defenders and kicks it to shooters in the corner. He is at his best when he is in transition and playing fast. Jorden has a good IQ and just always makes good decisions with the ball. Jorden is going to be relied on this year to run the show for his team.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2282935"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-690d12ceb0f09"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Parker is a good size guard with a smooth jumper. His shot is what makes him an effective combo guard and overall scorer. He also uses his ability to shoot from the outside to get defenders in the air and attack the bucket. When at the rim he finishes really well through contact with his strong frame and surprising athleticism. Parker has a good handle on the ball and is always looking to make the extra pass. Parker has the ability to have a break out year at valley and be the main scoring option.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"Adrian Fuentes","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"2027","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"6'1u0022","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"77244","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"Kellis","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_program":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_program":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_0_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-690d12ceb0fc3"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Adrian is another good size guard with a strong frame. He can either play the 1 or the 2 and thrive. When he plays the 1 spot he likes to get his teammates involved and play fast. When he is at the 2 spot he plays a lot more aggressive and looks to score at the rim and from the three. Adrian has a high IQ and is a plus defender that works really hard. He is the leader of his squad and I expect him to have a break out year.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"Miles Woods","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"2027","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"6'1u0022","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"77244","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"Maryvale","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_program":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_program":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_0_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-690d12ceb106c"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Miles is a stud football player and a transfer from Carl Hayden where he was a starter on a final four playoff team. Miles is a plus athlete that can do all the little things for a team. Miles can defend at a high level and get out and run the floor. He is a high intensity player that is tough to defend. Miles can hit the three at a high clip and attack the rim with the best of them. He will be a high impact player on an up and coming Maryvale team that is looking to make a solid run in the post season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2848790"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-690d12ceb10c3"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Jaseer is an athletic and long point guard that can do it all. He can score from all three levels and create for others. Jaseer has a great handle on the ball and can get down hill with ease. He is a shiftier guard and finishes well at the rim. He has a nice mid range jump shot and a solid looking three ball. Jaseer is a solid defender and uses his length to his advantage. He is a good rebounder for his position and likes to push the pace. Jaseer should have a big year as he ill take on more of the scoring load.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
