It has been a very good last six weeks or so for Sahm. He had a big month of June with Bishop Chatard and has picked up where he left off here in July with Indiana Basketball Club 17u. The big 6’3″-6’4″ guard found success once again as a catch-and-shoot threat, but also utilized his size both as a finisher inside and on the glass. Sahm posted a double-double of 15 points and 11 rebounds.

Fresh off of watching him scoring 32 points last Friday at the Indiana All-Star Classic, Sahm shot it incredibly well all weekend long at the Charlie Hughes Showcase. He finished the weekend, leading Bishop Chatard to a 4-0 record, shooting 17-25 from three-point range and averaged 19 points per game. His positional size and shooting ability has led to him being a real stock-riser this summer and especially this weekend.

Sahm had a big junior season for Bishop Chatard, but Friday was probably as well as we have seen him play. The 6’3″ guard utilized his positional size and strength to get some things done off of the dribble, but it was his three-point shooting that really took his performance to another level. He caught fire from beyond the arc making all six of his three-point shots in the final 10 minutes or so of the game. Sahm went on to finish with an impressive 32 points in the game.

This was my second chance getting to watch Bishop Chatard this season, and on this team, it was 2028 guard Ari Sahm Ari Sahm 6'4" | SG/CG Indianapolis Chatard | 2027 State IN who impressed me. He had a team-high 10 points for the Trojans in their loss to Kokomo last week in the Phil Cox Memorial Tournament and showed flashes of the player he could develop into. He is a long prospect who knows how to use his length to make tough shots over defenders right now, with the potential to add more athleticism and bounce to his game. I expect him to get better as the season progresses.
