<p>The spring signing period has started and there are a number of top players from the Class of 2022 that remain uncommitted. A number of these players are still playing AAU basketball to showcase themselves during the two live periods in the month of April. Here’s a look at the top point guards in the state that are still available to sign.</p>
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="1202059" first="Owen" last="Caudle"] (2022 Sherwood)</strong> - <em>Ranked #20</em></p>
<p>Caudle was Pacific Conference Player of the Year after helping Sherwood win the league title while averaging 18.8 points, 4.6 rebounds, 2.8 assists, and 1.6 steals. At 6-foot-1, he excels at getting to the hoop and scoring around bigger players or getting to the line and converting but can also hit the open perimeter jumper. Solid student academically.</p>
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="857358" first="Leo" last="Sewell"] (2022 Wells)</strong> - <em>Ranked #22</em></p>
<p>Sewell was a four-year starter at Wells at point guard and has been one of the top assist leaders the past three seasons, leading 6A as a sophomore. As a senior the 5-foot-9 guard averaged 13.6 points, 3.6 rebounds, 5.7 assists, and 2.4 steals. He took on more of a scoring role as a senior, playing more off the ball and is a capable outside shooter with range.</p>
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="964546" first="Trevon" last="Hamilton"] (2022 Beaverton)</strong> - <em>Ranked #23</em></p>
<p>Hamilton was Metro League Player of the Year after helping Beaverton reach the state tournament while averaging 8.8 points, 3.6 rebounds, 4.4 assists, and 2.5 steals. A pure pass-first point guard with size at 6-foot-2, he is constantly looking for the open man in the halfcourt or in transition but has improved his ability to score himself. He’s a lockdown defender who can really create turnovers with his quick hands.</p>
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="857368" first="Connor" last="Hills"] (2022 Barlow)</strong> - <em>Ranked #30</em></p>
<p>Hills stepped away from the team about two-thirds of the year at Barlow for personal reasons, but is healthy again both mentally and physically and looking for a college opportunity. At 5-foot-7 he may lack some size but more than makes up for it with his smarts and feel for the game, much of it he learned from his father who’s the all-time leading scorer in Corban history. Hills can shoot, score, and pass and really works hard on the defensive end.</p>
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="1229381" first="Josiah" last="Collins"] (2022 David Douglas)</strong> - <em>Ranked #44</em></p>
<p>Collins was a First Team All-Mount Hood Conference selection after averaging 14.8 points, 4.9 rebounds, 4.3 assists, and 2.2 steals. At 5-foot-11, he has a college-ready physique and simply overpowers defenders getting to the basket and finishing. He plays with a very high motor on the defensive end and can really push the ball on the break.</p>
