<h4 class="wp-block-heading">[player_tooltip player_id='2828496' first='Cameron' last='Anderson'] | 2028 | Roosevelt</h4>
<!-- /wp:heading -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Anderson was one of the best glue type players on Roosevelt's state championship team last season and has stepped into a much bigger role as a sophomore. The 6-foot-4 guard/wing has the ball skills, basketball IQ and vision and passing ability to play on the ball but is also a smart cutter, slasher and finisher which allows him to impact the game without the ball in his hands. Anderson had a strong line of 20 points, five rebounds and four assists in a loss to Windward.</p>

<h4 class="wp-block-heading">[player_tooltip player_id='1956470' first='Chace' last='Holley'] | 2026 | Redondo Union</h4>
<!-- /wp:heading -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Holley often impacts various areas of the stat sheet because of his elite motor, aggressive attacking mentality and ability to balance playmaking and scoring. The 6-foot-1 unsigned senior is an automatic paint touch where he can score through contact or kick an on-target pass to an open shooter and he's also a high level rebounder and defender at the guard spot. 16 points, nine assists, five rebounds and three steals in a win over JSerra.</p>

<h4 class="wp-block-heading">[player_tooltip player_id='2436297' first='Davey' last='Harris'] | 2027 | Windward</h4>
<!-- /wp:heading -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Harris has been one of the biggest breakout players on the west coast and he added another impressive chapter to that story Saturday. The 6-foot-6 wing scored 26 points, six rebounds and four assists in a win over Roosevelt and had his offensive versatility on full display. Harris can rebound the defensive glass, push the break and create shots for himself and teammates. He's also a prospect who can be put in any spot in half-court offense with mobility, ball skills, spacing IQ and ability to stretch the floor to the three-point line standing out as some intriguing next-level traits.</p>

<h4 class="wp-block-heading">[player_tooltip player_id='2815175' first='Dominic' last='Loehle'] | 2027 | Heritage Christian</h4>
<!-- /wp:heading -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Loehle pulled all the right strings for Heritage Christian Saturday as his combination of scoring punch, high IQ passing ability and unselfish, willingness to let the game come to him led to a stat-line of 24 points, 10 assists and five steals in a win over St. Anthony. Loehle used changes of speeds to keep defenders off balance which led to paint touches and allowed him to create offense for himself and teammates. Loehle knocked down a couple of three-point shots but was best at attacking the rim.</p>

<h4 class="wp-block-heading">[player_tooltip player_id='2948298' first='Isaiah' last='Williamson'] | 2028 | Los Alamitos</h4>
<!-- /wp:heading -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Williamson is emerging as one of the state's top sophomore prospects and his offensive versatility has a lot to do with it. The 6-foot-4 wing is a savvy left-handed playmaker and scorer whose smooth and measured pace along with his smart use of shot fakes, footwork and angles to score or create for teammates. Williamson is best as a mid-range scorer and creator with soft touch and great vision and finished with 17 points, six rebounds and two assists in a win over St. Francis.</p>

<h4 class="wp-block-heading">[player_tooltip player_id='2336388' first='Josh' last='Agbo'] | 2028 | Corona Centennial</h4>
<!-- /wp:heading -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Agbo is starting to turn a corner from being a prospect with all the physical and athletic tools to having those while producing at both ends of the floor. The 6-foot-4 wing is best when attacking the rim in transition where he can use his strong frame to overpower defenders for high percentage finishes at the rim. Agbo flashed improved confidence to his three-point shot and was on the glass coming up with timely rebounds. Agbo finished with 13 points, six rebounds and four assists in a win over Rolling Hills Prep.</p>

<h4 class="wp-block-heading">Zaire Rasshan | 2027 | Damien</h4>
<!-- /wp:heading -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Rasshan normally lands on a best shooters or scorers list from any event he plays in but Saturday he overcame a rough offensive performance by impacting the game in other areas. Rasshan still finished with 12 points, but it was his seven assists and three steals that stood out most in Damien's win over North Torrance. The junior didn't have his shot dropping at the rate he's used to and instead made the extra pass and drove into the lane and kicked to teammates for open shots.</p>
