<p>September 21st-22nd Dinos Trigonis held his annual <strong>Pangps All-West Freshman Sophomore Camp</strong>. He had about 180 players from the West Coast from the 2027 and 2028 classes. About 20-25 players from our state were on hand. I have two articles and I will start with players that I have previously seen and then the next article will be newcomers.</p>

<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2574815' first='Garrison' last='Bambolo'] Willow Canyon (Pictured)</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>A wing forward who can hit the catch three. He is fluid with the ball to get downhill with longer strides. He can also create his own offense off the dribble and will score on put backs. He will also rebound, block shots and he is another West Valley young player that will impact the rising 5A team. </p>

<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2574812' first='Sadeek' last='Noah'] Supreme Academy</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>The South Sudanese product is their top prospect. He can shoot it with deep threes off the catch, score on offensive rebound put backs with his quick springs and get down low to score. He makes his money on defense as he moves really well in space and covers a lot of ground. Blocks and rebounds are the norm for this talented 2027. </p>

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2574810' first='Wor' last='Wor'] Supreme Academy</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->

<p>A bigger wing who is a long strider and a plus athlete. He is a natural defender in space and a great shot blocker. He can pull-up off the dribble from mid-range and hit the catch three. He rebounds well and can time an offensive rebound put back dunk perfectly. </p>

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2573957' first='Amari' last='Upshaw'] Bella Vista Prep</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>A bigger lead guard from Nova Scotia, Canada. He is very long and hyper athletic to dunk the ball. He has a good feel to make plays and is deceptively fast to get to the basket and will explode up to finish. He will hit the catch three, handle the contact inside and score with hook shots. He advance passes really well and this one has high upside. </p>

<!-- /wp:paragraph -->

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2574808' first='Ruach' last='Gony'] Supreme Academy</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>A long forward who moves well in space on defense. He rebounds unusually well in and out of his area and blocks shots in bunches with his long wingspan and athleticism. He dunks the ball easily and can score it near the basket.</p>

<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2553594' first='Aguer' last='Kuir'] Supreme Academy</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->

<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2574798' first='Jahvonnie' last='Sutherland'] Mesa</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>A good sized freshman power forward. He just moved in from New York and plays really hard. He chases after every ball with a big motor to rebound. He runs well and will score around the rim with layups in heavy traffic using his frame.</p>

<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2574805' first='Jaeden' last='Mahendrarajah'] Bella Vista Prep</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>A highly skilled scoring guard from Ontario, Canada. He scores from all levels with deep threes off the catch or pull, he has some shift to his handle to get to the basket and uses the floater game and scores on put backs. His deep shooting separates him from some.</p>

<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2574799' first='Quinton' last='Tillman III'] Verrado</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
