Who is the Prep Hoops x Dr. Dish Player of the Week (1/6-1/12)?

Jaydon put on a scoring clinic in Cedar Falls' statement 74–69 win over top-ranked Waukee Northwest at the MVC-CIML Crossover Challenge, delivering one of the most impressive performances of the season. Kimbrough erupted for a game-high 36 points on an ultra-efficient 12-of-18 shooting, knocking down 6-of-9 from deep and repeatedly rising to the moment against one of the state's elite defenses. Accounting for nearly half of his team's offense, his poise, shot-making, and leadership powered the upset and clearly separated him as the most impactful player on the floor with season averages of 20.4 points per game while shooting over 61% from the field and 56% from three.

Lexyn has been a cornerstone presence on the court, consistently averaging 20+ points per game while also creating timely opportunities for his teammates. His impact goes far beyond the stat sheet, as he continues to compete at a high level while overcoming extraordinary adversity. Recently, Lexyn reached the 1,000-point milestone, an achievement made even more impressive by the fact that the majority of those points were scored in just two seasons, underscoring both his resilience and elite scoring ability.

Carter made history by dishing out 17 assists in a single game, setting a new school record and showcasing his elite court vision, unselfishness, and ability to elevate everyone around him.

Payton has been on an impressive four-game tear, delivering consistently dominant performances from late December through early January. Over that stretch, he averaged 27 points, 7.5 rebounds, 3.7 assists, and 3 steals per game while impacting every facet of the game. His run included near triple-double production in a tournament win, a hyper-efficient 32-point outing with 10 made field goals and 12 free throws, a 30-point blowout performance highlighted by five steals, and a strong 27-point, 11-rebound effort despite a narrow loss.

Lucas delivered a career-high performance, erupting for 34 points while pulling down 12 rebounds and showcasing his ability to dominate from the perimeter. The 6'2 guard is averaging an impressive 23.1 points and 13.3 rebounds per game, consistently impacting games well beyond the scoring column. His recent outings were highlighted by 22 points with 17 rebounds and 24 points with 14 boards.

Luke delivered a historic performance by pouring in a school-record 45 points while adding 7 assists, 5 steals, and 4 rebounds, leading his team to a statement win. The all-around effort highlighted his ability to dominate offensively while impacting the game on both ends of the floor. With a season average of 29.2 points per game, he continues to establish himself as one of the most prolific scorers in the area.

Over two varsity games this week, he delivered dominant, high-efficiency performances while logging heavy minutes and controlling the game on both ends of the floor. In a Jan. 9 matchup against BTW, he powered his team with 25 points and 17 rebounds, adding a steal and a block while shooting an outstanding 9-of-13 from the field in 41 minutes. Earlier in the week on Jan. 6 versus Huntington, he was just as steady, posting 19 points, 8 rebounds, and 2 steals, shooting 50 percent from the floor and a perfect 8-for-8 at the free-throw line with zero turnovers in 33 minutes. Across both games, he totaled 44 points, 25 rebounds, 3 steals, and 1 block while shooting roughly 61 percent from the field and nearly 79 percent from the line.

This past week, Charlie continued his strong return to the court by recording a double-double against Bellevue East with 21 points and 13 rebounds. The performance marked just his third regular-season game since returning from a football injury that kept him sidelined earlier in the year. Since making his comeback on Dec. 30 at the Omaha Metro Tournament—where he scored 20 points against Bellevue West—Buller has quickly reestablished his presence, providing scoring, rebounding, and physicality as he regains full form.
