Here were some of the sophomore guard standouts:
Kalek House Kalek House 6'2" | CG Desert Mountain | 2026 State AZ Desert Mountain (Pictured)
A guard who plays on or off the ball often. He defends at a high level and he is a shot maker from catch threes and difficult pull-ups from mid-range while being contested. He scores on tough layups in traffic with contact and uses floaters and runners. Stock up!
Rokiem Green Rokiem Green 6'3" | SG Canyon International Academy | 2026 State AZ Canyon International Academy
An athletic shooting guard is becoming a 3 and D threat. He can rattle off catch threes and is great in transition. He is a very good on-ball defender as he moves his feet well laterally on defense. He rises high on his mid-range jumper off the dribble and brings energy every game.
Kaden House Kaden House 6'3" | CG Desert Mountain | 2026 State AZ Desert Mountain
House scores it so easily with threes off the catch or dribble in bunches. He is an incredible rebounder and gets players on his hip and manages to get to the line often. He hits tough euros in traffic going fast to slow with amazing body control. He makes tough contested shots and gets to his spots. He made some phenomenal passes in stride to his teammates. His stock is up on a national stage!
Ikenna Alozie Ikenna Alozie 6'3" | CG Dream City Christian | 2026 State AZ Dream City Chrisitan
One of the best players of the night belonged to Alozie. He scored 19 points with 10+ rebounds and 5+ assists. He is a great on-ball defender and is faster than most on the court. He also rattled off a couple threes showing that he is more then capable plus a high level pull-up from mid-range. He is a willing passer and is polishing up his skill slowly.
Rider Portela Rider Portela 6'5" | SG Sunnyslope | 2026 State AZ Sunnyslope
The long wing is a transition scorer and will hit the catch three. He often cuts to the basket and will score on offensive rebound put backs with his effort and athleticism. His length on defense bothers his opponents.
Brayden Newton Brayden Newton 5'11" | CG Boulder Creek | 2026 State AZ Boulder Creek
A combo guard who brings real energy to the court. He has a quick burst to the basket and he is very fast in the open court to score in transition. He is quick on the ball defensively and makes plays for his teammates.
Brody Postorino Brody Postorino 6'0" | CG Notre Dame Prep | 2026 State AZ Notre Dame Prep
A hard-nosed on-ball defender who can make shots from the three point line off the catch. He rebounds well and boxes out like you should. His ability to make it harder to score on is his skill. He made some clutch free throws in OT.
