2025 Top Players to Watch

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Taking a look at top players in each category and the impact they have for their teams.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1717267' first='Shane' last='Curry']- Front Range Christian </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Curry is a stat sheet stuffer and does it all for the Falcons. Curry is the top scorer for the 2025 class as of now. He is averaging a double-double with 27.7 points per game and has 11.7 rebounds per game. He is active on defense and turns his defense into offense. He doesn't shoot many 3's but is shooting 46% when he does. Is a good finisher and finishing in traffic, would like to see him convert more from the line but is converting from the field at a good rate.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Eddie Harmon</strong>- Pikes Peak Christian</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The Eagles have only played 4 games so it's a small sample size but Harmom is averaging a double-double. He is averaging 14.0 rebounds per game and has been making an impact on the defensive end contributing in the steals and blocks category. Harmon had a complete game against Front Ramge Christian and had an outstanding 6 steals with 13 rebounds. Will look for Harmon to keep up this defensive output for the eagles against Liberty Tree Academy.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1369809' first='Dominic' last='Rhoades-Martinez']- Denver South</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The Ravens have a great well rounded guard in Rhoades-Martinez who will continue to stuff the stat sheet. He is a player that hustles and plays smart basketball. He is Leading the Ravens in assists dropping dimes averaging 5.7 assists per game. He runs a good two man with teammate [player_tooltip player_id='1578227' first='Tyler' last='Hunsinger'] who is leading the team in points but Rhoades-Martinez is right behind with 14.9 points per game. The Ravens will continue to lean on these two as the seaon progresses.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Nate Cabrera</strong>- Swink</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Cabrera is leading the Lions in steals with 5.2 steals through 9 games. The Swink Lions are a balanced team and Cabrera is a standout defender for the Lions, making a concerted effort on that end of the court. Cabrera is also the second leading scorer on the team and the Lions are taking on an undefeated Crowley County Chargers team next that is also very balanced as well. I will look for Cabrera to continue build on his great defensive performance to make this a close contest. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1369806' first='Garrett' last='Barger']- Eaglecrest</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Barger is a tall athletic defender that also can score on the inside as well. Barger has 4 double-doubles on the year and is almost averaging a double-double as well. He is averaging 13.2 points per game and is the second leading scorer. Barger is leading the Raptors in rebounds at 9.2 rebounds per game and makes a difference on the defensive side. His height and quickness makes it difficult on the offense to finish and makes players alter shots.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
