is one of the best shooters in the entire class of 2026. His quick release and confidence from deep make him a constant threat. What’s often overlooked is his athleticism—he’s gotten stronger and more physical, allowing him to impact the game beyond shooting. Due to his shooting ability, he’s that much quicker when defender overplay him.

He’s one of NorCal’s top 3-point shooters, he’ll drop 3’s from all over the court with deep range, if he finds his rhythm look out. His shooting percentages are improving. He makes the move up because of the work he put in to improve other areas of his game. Improved ball handling allows him to get to the rim more often, rather than settling, he’s finishing. He’s a long arm defender with better effort on that side of the ball. He could be ready for a breakout season.

His overall play is on the upswing with improved ball handling, and a willingness to attack the rim. He’s using length to finish at the rim, change shots, and help rebound.

didn’t see a shot he didn’t like all weekend.
The lefty sharpshooter started his game against Bellarmine Prep by missing his first three-point attempt. But that was the only cold moment he had. He went on to knock down his next four threes and finished the game shooting 6-for-9 from beyond the arc.
Saddiq’s able to shoot effortlessly from long range. His left-handed shot is smooth and quick, and he can repeat his stroke, which allows him to really lock-in and shoot with consistency. Off the bounce, he lures defenders in with a relaxed rhythm dribble, then rises up before they even realize he’s pulling the trigger. And he’s not just hitting high school threes—he’s confidently stepping out and knocking down shots from NBA range from all around the arc. As he warmed up, his range seemed to stretch further and further. With that kind of confidence, quick release, and deep range, Saddiq always has the green light and is a threat the moment he crosses half court.

He’s a long wiry sharp shooter, who’ll drop 3’s from all angles on the court. He could get hot, consistency is key for him. Has he taken steps to improve his play on the defensive side of the ball, we’ll see. His long wingspan takes up passing lanes, he’ll distract, and deflect on shooters running out with his long arms up.

The long wiry prospect has been known to be a reliable shooter from behind the 3pt line when he gets into a rhythm. He made his fair share of 3’s, but also used his lengthy wingspan to disrupt the passing lanes, getting deflections, steals, then passing up for assists, and easy buckets. He had a couple of chase down blocks.

He’s a good 3pt shooter from the corners, and other spots along the perimeter. He shoots with confidence, not too worried about misses because he expects to make them. We’ve seen him get hot and drop 7 in an early season game. He’s long, wiry probably still growing. He has room to add other pieces to grow his game.
