Darius Swenson showed why he is an elite defender throughout the weekend. He has great size and a strong build to go along with quick feet and athleticism. He does a great job using his physical tools on the defensive end and can go up and grab rebounds over opposing players. He is the type of defender you can put on the other team’s best player and make things difficult for them all game. I’d like to see a little more out of him offensively but his defensive ability is what separates him. Darius earned his spot on my top defenders list with his performance this weekend.

Darius Swenson Darius Swenson 6'2" | SF Rock Springs | 2030 UT is a tall, athletic small forward who knows how to be in the right place at the right time. He has great length, can finish around the rim, and has a nice jump shot to go with his athletic ability. Darius is the type of player coaches want on their team because he can defend, score the ball, and be a good teammate. I’ve been hearing great things about this kid, and he’s one of the players I’ve had circled on my list that I’m excited to watch compete at the showcase. That’s why Darius is on my Top 10 Players to Watch list.
