has moved from #10 to #7 in the latest 2028 rankings after putting together a stellar season for the Clark Chargers. The sophomore floor general was a reliable scorer for them thanks to his accuracy, patience, and instincts. His precision from downtown (38%) was an asset all season, and he capped off his great year by knocking down a huge three in the 4A State Championship game. Edwards didn’t take possessions off on defense either, constantly applying pressure. And he led the Chargers in minutes per game. Expect him to make waves with

Edwards also competed on the defensive end, limiting the Manogue guards to few quality looks. He finished with an impressive 18 points.

made the defense pay with his jumper and free-throw shooting in the 4A Southern Region Final. He was efficient with his footwork and showcased his touch throughout the game. Defensively, he swarmed Legacy’s ball-handlers and stayed active with his hands, not allowing them to make easy passes.

mixed it up offensively, knocking down floaters and three-pointers. While also drawing contact on several quality takes to the rim. He played with noticeable assertiveness and showcased impressive body control, finishing tough shots even with defenders closing in. On the defensive end, he competed at a high level. And the collective effort from him and the other guards kept the Mustangs from ever finding a consistent rhythm.
Stats – 19 Points

poured in 19 points in Clark’s win over Palo Verde, setting the tone early with a jumper, a 3-pointer, and trips to the free-throw line. He continued to get to his spots and knock down shots in the second half, helping the Chargers build a lead heading into the fourth quarter. Edwards capped his performance with a tough transition basket in the closing minutes and calmly drained a few free throws to hold off the Panthers.

has impressive start-and-stop ability that forces defenders to overcommit, giving him space to get his shot off even in traffic. He also wisely hits his forwards with precise passes when bringing it up. On the defensive end, Edwards uses his lateral quickness and effort to consistently give his man trouble.

has leapfrogged a couple of players and is now in the #10 spot in the latest 2028 rankings. One of the craftiest underclassmen guards around, he uses hesitation moves and tight handles to leave defenders off balance. He’s also not the kind of player you want leaving open looks from beyond the arc. Overall, Edwards plays with remarkable consistency, and I appreciate how he never rushes things. He just lets the game come to him.

hits shots from the perimeter and had a few very strong takes to the basket for the Chargers. I liked how he showed patience and waited for the right moment to get his shot off. Even though Clark didn’t come away with the win, he’s definitely a 2028 guard to keep an eye on this season.

is a very talented floor general that utilizes his instincts and IQ to pick apart the defense. He does a nice job of keep his eyes up as he drives. Which allows him to find his forwards on the block. Or he can drop in floaters by using his soft touch. Edwards is also the type of player who can bury multiple 3’s. And you don’t want to let him get a clean look.
